Substation Automation and IED Data

This dataset provides comprehensive, time-stamped records of Intelligent Electronic Device (IED) operations within digital substations, including relay settings, fault events, system logs, and IEC 61850 GOOSE message exchanges. It enables detailed analysis of substation automation, operational reliability, and event traceability for power grid monitoring and optimization.

Behind this dataset

Same schema. As many rows as you need.

These 105 rows came out of a blueprint — 27 columns with generation rules behind each one. Open it in Data Factory to retune a column, add your own, wire in foreign keys, and run it at the size you actually need.

Rules it was built with
  • IED ID unique per device
  • Device type: protective relay, RTU, merging unit, bay controller
  • Communication protocol: IEC 61850, DNP3, Modbus, IEC 60870-5-104
  • GOOSE (Generic Object-Oriented Substation Event) messages
  • Sampled Values (SV) for process bus architecture
  • Fault records with oscillography data
  • Sequence of events (SOE) with sub-second timestamps
  • Relay settings: pickup, time delay, coordination curves
