  1. IPRM Overview Zahra Makoui SG Conformity Vice Chair March 2011 Source: SGIP SGTCC http://collaborate.nist.gov/twiki-sggrid/pub/SmartGrid/SGTCCIPRM/SGTCC_IPRM_Version_1.0_Updated.pdf

  2. March 2011 Whatis SGTCC? • The Smart Grid Testing & Certification Committee (SGTCC) is a standing committee of the Smart Grid Interoperability Panel (SGIP) • SGTCC has developed a framework to enable industry testing and certification programs for Smart Grid interoperability Zahra Makoui, PG&E

  3. Goals of the IPRM March 2011 Increase the buyer’s confidence in the purchase of certified interoperable products for their organizations Standardize the testing and certification processes, through an initial set of best practices, across multiple standards ensuring more consistent and quality interoperable products within the Smart Grid at large Implement a formal approval process for those organizations following the SGTCC Testing and Certification Framework to assure the purchasing organizations of quality, audited testing programs Support end users purchasing Smart Grid products based on standards to reduce costs and shorten product implementation cycle time Zahra Makoui, PG&E

  4. What is IPRM? The Interoperability Process Reference Manual (IPRM) is the primary document defining the framework for Smart Grid testing and certification Provides guidelines on how to build conformity program increasing confidence in products interoperability What are basic assumptions of IPRM? (a) ITCA exists overseeing and administering program (b) "Certification Body" exists to certify products (ISO guide 65) (c) Testing laboratories exist to test products (ISO 17025) March 2011 Slide 4 Zahra Makoui, PG&E

  5. Key IPRM Topics March 2011 Best Practices for Interoperability Test Construction Criteria for certification body process quality Criteria for test laboratory best practices Best Practices for Cyber Security Test Construction Zahra Makoui, PG&E

  6. How does it affect us? Products/services incorporating OSG recommendations will need ITCA What's been done to date? NIST has sponsored document creation for UCA 61850 Conformance upgrade to ITCA. http://www.ucaiug.org/org/TechnicalO/Testing/Shared%20Documents/UCA_Documents_as_NIST_SGIP_ITCA/ NIST asking us to identify gaps in ITCAs: HAN end to end testing (simulating registration to an ESI) HAN business interoperability (Texas Common Portal) HAN Performance Testing AMI Enterprise? OpenADE? Others? March 2011 Slide 6 Zahra Makoui, PG&E
