ELECTROMAGNETIC INTEROPERABILITY ISSUES
04/19/2023
Galen KoepkeNIST Lead
31
ELECTROMAGNETIC INTEROPERABILITY ISSUES WG
• Scope: This Working Group will investigate enhancing the immunity of Smart Grid devices and systems to the detrimental effects of natural and man-made electromagnetic interference, both radiated and conducted. The focus is to address these electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) issues and to develop recommendations for the application of standards and testing criteria to ensure EMC for the Smart Grid, with a particular focus on issues directly related to interoperability of Smart Grid devices and systems, including impacts, avoidance, generation and mitigation of and immunity to electromagnetic interference. These recommendations from the Electromagnetics Interoperability Issues Working Group can be considered by the SGIP for follow-on activity (PAP creation, SGTCC action, etc.). With its focus on interoperability, this effort is not a general review of electromagnetics and electric power related issues, such as power quality, which are being addressed in different groups outside the SGIP.
NIST Framework, Release 1 (section 7.3) identifies electromagnetic disturbances and interference as two of the “…major standards-related issues and barriers impacting standardization efforts and progress toward a fully operational Smart Grid.”
32
ELECTROMAGNETIC INTEROPERABILITY ISSUES WG
• Electromagnetic Interoperability Issues Working Group chartered– Charter reviewed and revised after discussion with Governing Board, TnD DEWG
and H2G DEWG• Progress to Date:
– Working Group page added to Twiki site and list server initiated– Announcement circulated to initial email list and SGIP forum– Good response to announcements– Initial teleconference/webcast November 1, 2010– Regular telecon/web meetings planned, F2F at Grid-Interop

CATALOG OF STANDARDS
04/19/2023
Mark KlererSGIP Plenary Vice Chair
34
Plenary leadership team working in conjunction with SGAC and other SGIP working groups
• Proposed Scope of the Standards Catalog– Standards and guides recognized as relevant for enabling SG capabilities
• Proposed Objectives of the Standards Catalog– Explain value & purpose of the catalog for SG community– Influential, but independent of NIST/FERC decision-making– Characterize the various specification organizations with respect to their processes in
developing their specifications– Provide an annotated resource that identifies standards created by recognized SSOs
and/or industry consortia that are relevant to Smart Grid applications– Identify functional areas of smart grid where each standard is appropriate (draw on
SGAC work)
CATALOG OF STANDARDS (STATUS OF WORK IN PROGRESS)
35
• Process– NIST Framework and Roadmap for SG Interoperability v1.0 identifies many standards to consider– Additional standards can be identified to the SGIP Administrator by any SGIP member for potential
inclusion in catalog– Relevance and importance evaluated by appropriate SGIP working group (e.g. DEWG, PAP, etc) and
consensus developed– 75% approval by SGIP membership required prior to SGIPGB approval for inclusion in the catalog– Standards included in the catalog may be deprecated from further use to changes in technology or
needs by following the same process.
• Catalog Structure– Entries in catalog to be structured based on application domain defined in the Framework and
further classified by GWAC stack
• Relationship to NIST and FERC lists– Standards Catalog strives for accurate characterization and relevance to the smart grid community,
and avoids recommendation– Standards Catalog expected to be a larger compilation which can inform NIST and FERC in their
decision processes

Issues, Concerns, and Help Needed Obtaining timely cooperation from the ITCAs to
participate in the review process with the TCC, and accelerating their commitment to adopt and enact the SGTCC recommendations in their operations
Engaging end users to gain their commitment towards requiring IPRM conformance for ITCAs certifying the products that they purchase
October 2010 Activities - PMO Monthly Report
SGTCC MONTHLY QUAD CHART
39
PURPOSE• Establish a Testing and Certification Framework for the Smart Grid• Establish a brand called ‘Interoperability’ that has a consistent meaning across
the Smart Grid for the buyers of interoperable products.– At this time a set of products deemed interoperable may be interoperable with a 80%,
95%, 99%, or 100% confidence level. Thus to say a product is interoperable has little current meaning in the market place as many purchasing organizations have found.
40
DEFINITIONS• ITCA – Interoperability Testing and Certification Authority • Framework Manual - IPRM – Interoperability Program Reference Manual• ISO 65 - General Requirements for Bodies Operating Product Certification
Systems• ISO 17025 – General Requirements for the Competence of Testing and Calibration
Laboratories • SGTCC Interoperability Test Construction Best Practices – Lists of best practices
not covered in ISO 65 and ISO 17025• SGTCC/CSWG Cyber Security Testing Best/Standard Practices –List of best
practices not covered in ISO 65 and ISO 17025• Interoperability Maturity Assessment Model – looking for IOP products based on
standards NOW.

Framework Manual
42
• ISO Guide 65 contains the requirements necessary for an organization to demonstrate competence to perform certification activities related to the standards or specifications stated in the certification
• ISO Guide 65 criteria include:– Technical competence
• Certifying personnel criteria; accessibility of certification test processes; assessment fairness and integrity and others
– Management systems• Quality management processes, technical dispute resolution processes• Lab qualification criteria, lists of certified products, record control, ongoing certification
maintenance and withdrawal process
• ISO Guide 65 conformance demonstrates a robust, thorough and meaningful certification program
• Implements a monitoring program for IOP products in the field to ensure IOP remains
ISO GUIDE 65 OVERVIEW
43
• ISO 17025 contains all requirements that laboratories need to demonstrate that they – operate a management system, – are technically competent, – are able to generate technically valid results.
• ISO 17025 is the most widely accepted and used standard for the operation of test laboratories
• ISO 17025 applies to any testing laboratory operation (1st, 2nd or 3rd party), with many 3rd party labs formally accredited
• It facilitates acceptance of test results from accredited laboratories and serves as the requirements that formal accreditation bodies apply in assessing laboratories.
ISO 17025 OVERVIEW
44
– Test Suite Specification of a standard used for interoperability or conformance testing shall be managed in the same way as the standard they are derived from.
– IOP Certification test reports shall fully describe the test methodology used including the justification for statistical or deterministic testing.
– A certified interoperable product set shall also be conformant to the standard or profile of the standard.
– The only means to ensure interoperability among products is to perform a full matrix test.
BEST PRACTICES FOR IOP TEST CONSTRUCTION EXAMPLES
45
2011 TRANSITION BOOTSTRAP YEAR• SGTCC, with NIST will help bootstrap the process by offering tutorial help in 2011
to the first few committed ITCAs.– Preliminary review of implementation of ISO 65 and ISO 17025 implemented
processes.– Review and analysis of interoperability test construction best practices.– Other general guidance.
• Maintain a list for the industry showing ITCAs in the process of implementing the Manual.
46
2011 TRANSITION BOOTSTRAP YEAR• SGTCC, with NIST will help bootstrap the process by offering tutorial help in 2011
to the first few committed ITCAs.– Preliminary review of implementation of ISO 65 and ISO 17025 implemented
processes.– Review and analysis of interoperability test construction best practices.– Other general guidance.
• Maintain a list for the industry showing ITCAs in the process of implementing the Manual.
47
COST “ESTIMATES” TO IMPLEMENT THE MANUAL FOR ITCA• Initial
– 4 to 6 man months to implement the processes internally– Consulting help to do so: dependent on ITCA
• Annual– Maintenance of internal Quality processes around ISO 65 and ISO 17025: ½ to 1 person
per year– Audits/accreditation of ISO 65 processes: $10,000 +/- $2,500– Audits/accreditations of ISO 17025 processes: $10,000 +/- $2,500
• ROI– Purchasing organization ROI for implementation of interoperable products is significant
and will in almost all cases offset any additional purchase price by reducing: integration time, installation time and ongoing maintenance .
Note these are estimates and can vary widely depending on the standard.
48
2012 AND BEYOND• ITCAs will be using Test Labs using ISO 17025, and ISO 65 standards and be
accredited by the existing formal accreditation organizations. • SGTCC will maintain lists of SGIP Approved ITCAs (those implementing the
Manual) for a standard and demonstrating the production of interoperable products. The products of the standard will be monitored for interoperability in the field by ITCA and secondarily by SGTCC
• Accreditation Bodies (e.g., NVLAP and ANSI) will periodically audit test labs and certification bodies using the Manual as guidance and re-accredit them. SGTCC will subsequently update the ‘SGIP ITCA Approved List ’.
Note many Test lab now use ISO 17025, but not the IOP best practices. Also many ITCAs do not use ISO 65.
49
NEXT STEPS AND YOUR RESPONSE• Receive SGIP consensus for Manual / Framework• Each SGIP member MUST REQUIRE the purchase of interoperable products to
initiate the monetary incentive for many of the ITCAs to upgrade to the Manual / Framework.
– Note: this is an issue about wide scale interoperability across the smart grid. Having only a percentage requiring interop products will in many ways leave us in our current state.
• SGTCC will offer two Webinars in late November and early December to address questions and concerns. To be announced.
