Conformance <> Need reference system
Both positive and negative testing
Can test all supported functions
Certificate
Each system is tested once
All errors are detected
Interoperability Need 2 systems
Limited negative testing sf
Can test matching functions
Test report
Each combination of systems need to be tested
Matching errors are not detected
21 November, 2011 IEC 61850 Testing 6
Conformance Testing; Why? To reduce inter-operability risks to an acceptable level
(before system integration!)
To provide maximum customer confidence that the device will inter-operate flawlessly with other certified devices now and in the future
On large number of systems in the market it’s more efficient than interoperability testing

KEMA testing experience Executed over 190(!) IEC 61850 conformance tests Each test resulted in issues to be fixed Raised many technical issues (TISSUES) Resulted in almost no interoperability issues!
(considering the huge scale of use)
