Ethernet protocol Techniques
Redundancy is a must have for Protection Schemes based on
GOOSE and especially for high availability environment
(substation, electro intensive user, etc)
2 kinds of redundancy techniques exist:
Active redundancy:

Ethernet protocol Techniques
Redundancy is a must have for Protection Schemes based on
GOOSE and especially for high availability environment
(substation, electro intensive user, etc)
Many Redundancy protocols exist:
Standardized STP, RSTP (passive redundancy)

PRP
Parallel Redundancy Protocol
PRP (IEC 62439-3 Clause 4)
Ethernet redundancy method independent of any Ethernet protocol
Seamless (0ms) switchover and recovery in case of failure thus supports real-
time communication
Redundancy supervised continuously for device management
Suitable for hot swap - 24h/365d operation in substations
Allows
Mixing single and double network attachment devices on the same LAN (not
redundant and redundant devices)
Thus connect laptops and workstations to the network with standard Ethernet
adapters (not redundant devices)
Uses off-the shelf components (network interfaces, controllers, switches)
Supports any network topology (Star, Ring, Mesh)
Suited particularly for substation automation, high-speed drives and
transportation

Frame identification
PRP
PRP tag is at the end of the frame in order to be interoperable with todays (not PRP) switches
HSR
HSR tag is at the beginning of the frame in order to transmit further without delay

From a business perspective
Business wise
HSR and PRP is generally integrated into the Protective relays, the computers etc
This is optimizing the number of Ethernet switches required
This is also minimizing the number of links (fiber or copper)
This is simplifying the Network configuration
Schneider Electric - End User Business Group - Cities Business - Energy Division - Energy Automation 18
From a Engineering perspective
Engineering wise
HSR is usually using direct ring topology
PRP is usually using direct star topology
HSR is preferred to connect all the IEDs mounted in the same cubicle
No additional switch is needed
But the communication bandwidth used is multiplied
It is not possible to connect a laptop to this network but to the RedBox
PRP is preferred to interconnect the cubicles and the Control System
An additional switch is needed
But the communication bandwidth used is normal
RSTP can be preferred for lower end Protection and Control
As a very cost effective solution
But has a reconfiguration time
