The CoMPAS roadmap is based on the CoMPAS product vision and the CoMPAS mission and related objectives.


Objectives per theme view

ThemeNowNext Later

Fundamentals

Build SCL based specifcations

Add OpenSCD APIv3 core API


Improved database interface

Soft delete

Add DocOps to OpenSCD and CoMPAS


Remove OpenSCD fork

SpecificationAdd template generator to CoMPASAdd OET - SCL Editor bay tipical editor to CoMPAS

Manual Engineering

Engineer a substation by hand

Add publischiler plug-in to CoMPAS


Add SLD editor

Add compare function to CoMPAS (build by Omicron)

  • general merge function ( 8 | ? )
  • general update function ( 8 | ? )
  • general control block manipulation (? | ?)
  • general log control block manipulation ( ? | ?)
  • support older schema versions ( ? | >6 sprints)
  • Allow userrights (Certain roles are allowed to edit specific parts)

CoMPAS SCT in JAVA: Automatic SCD generation


  • Rename IEDnames

    Turn on/off LDevice reading the SSD Substation Bay Function and LNode
  • Generation DataSet and ControlBlock using ExtRef binding and update ExtRef.srcXXXX attributes including Communication adresses generation for GSE and SV CB
  • Update all LLN0.InRef related to the ExtRef
  • Create LGOS et LSVS instance and configure GoCBRef and SvCBRef
  • Generate RptControl CB and DS for the HMI
  • Settings and binding changes within the SCD depending on the Substation topology
  • Update DAI.Val according to SSD settings


  • Configure the disturbance recorder
  • Configure the physical binding LPDI/LPDO
  • Generate RptControl CB and DS for the Gateway
  • Generate the SCD PROXY for a given gateway
  • SSD conversion (input specific to RTE)
  • Update IP address from DNS
  • ICD automatic binding/instanciation within bay kind from functional specification defined through 9-30 norm files
  • SCL to 90-30 files conversion (internal to RTE)

Testing

Test SCL files on certain aspecs


  • configurable OCL validator
  • functional validation e.g. MAC / IP / APPID / ...

SCL insights (engineering)

Publish SCL files to get insights in to the  configurations





SCL insights (scanned)

Publisch actual substation settings by scanning the substation (not with with CoMPAS) 




Publish (substation scanned) values (Alliander)


Who is working on it?

RTE

Bearingpoint


Disclaimer:

This roadmap is only for communication purpose. Their are no guarantees on what get delivered and when. If you like your feature to be included? Get involved in the development (directly or via a 3th party). You can also follow the project via Github.

Please note that CoMPAS heavily relies on OpenSCD for the front-end and manual editing.


Idea's for the future:

Modbus support

61850 gateway support (61850-90-2 with proxy's)

More easy SCL checking

Workflow support

Integration SCT backend SCD generation into front-end

Substation logic (IEC 61850-90-11)

User rights and profiles

Initial Roadmap (history)

The initial roadmap of the project was drafted by a design team involving several grid operators and T&D automation vendors:
