SpainKey Features
- Project start: February 2013
- Project completion: May 2013
- iGrid products involved: iRTU-B2C2
- Number of RTUs/MV substations: Near 250 units
- Number of data points: Up to 50 I/O points/iRTU

Project description
iRTU-B2C2 were used in a project that aimed at modernizing the energy management system of the Metropolitan Railway Network of Madrid (Spain).
The iRTU-B2C2s act as gateways reading data from IEDs via IEC60870‑5–101 and TT68 protocols and mapping this information to IEC60870‑5–104.

IEC61850
iGrid T&D’s SCADA, RTUs, substation gateways, protocol converters and bay controllers support both IEC61850 client and server communication capabilities. When acting as IEC61850 servers, our solutions are able to map any existing IED to IEC61850 logical devices
Substation Automation
IEC61850, IEC60870‑5–104 and DNP3.0 (as well as other communication protocols) are used worldwide for substations’ automation. iGrid T&D solutions use all of them to have a completely interoperability with any other vendor
Medium Voltage Distribution grid automation
Our solutions fulfill the standards required by electrical companies for the control of Medium Voltage grids (MV/LV substations). Our devices are capable to adapt to different communication media (e.g. serial, Ethernet, GPRS/3G, PSTN) and able to handle multiple communication protocols (e.g. IEC60970‑5–104, DNP3.0)
Smart metering
Our smart metering solutions support the most popular metering protocols (IEC60870‑5–102, Modbus and DLMS) and multiple communication media. iGrid T&D is working with the most important meter manufacturers worldwide to collect and deliver metering information to the electrical market
Protocol converter
Retrofitting electrical facilities means to use the newest devices together with the oldest ones. For these projects, flexible and adaptable protocol converters are vital devices.
Hydroelectric generation plant
Hydroelectric generation plants require remote control following the electrical systems standards, but a higher degree of automation is requested, as special procedures are requested for actions like dams open/close, generator start/stop, etc. iGrid solutions will give you easy tools to automate small and big hydroelectric generation plants
