Bypassing the CIM

8

Each transformation, from a unique data model to the CIM, requires unique logic; however, Schneider Electric offers a single transformation component supporting multiple source data models through a relatively simple, mapping configuration shared by all models.

Common CIMTransformation Component

Common Information Model

A standard data model for electric utilities encompassing many information systems, developed by the International Electrotechnical Commission, working group 14.

●IEC 61970: Distribution network, loads, outage, SCADA, …●IEC 61968: Asset management, customer information, …●Schema specified in the Unified Modeling Language●Designed to integrate systems serving the control center including transmission, distribution and generation systems requiring real-time integration.●Avoids a multiplicity of bilateral, inter-system integration components.

CIM Profile

A CIM profile is a subset of the CIM describing a portion of the model recorded by a particular information system, a distribution feeder model recorded by a GIS for example.

●A single data source may support many profiles.●Does not describe the transformation from a source data model to the CIM●Specified with the Resource Description Framework (RDF), XML Schema Definition (XSD) or Web Ontology Language (OWL)

Query

A Query retrieves a set of related data from a data source and constructs a query set representing a portion of the source model.

Example: An ArcFM feeder query connects to an ArcFM database, performs an ArcFM distribution circuit trace, retrieves data related to the feeder equipment and constructs a query set representing the equipment and related data.

Query

17

Query Set

A Schemaless* Collection of Related Objects

An object of Class-1 is related to two objects of Class-2. One relationship is named.

*An object may have any attribute and may be related to any other object, and an object’s class name is simply a required attribute.

Mapping ConfigurationMapping

Configuration

A Mapping Configuration describes the relationship between the source data model and the CIM, enabling a single integration component to generate the CIM from diverse utility systems.

•Maps related CIM classes to classes related in the data source•Maps each attribute of a concrete CIM class to one or more data source attributes•Mapping Operators derive CIM property values from data source field values

Post Processing

Post Processing Operators

Post Processing operations apply additional transformation logic to CIM objects after property mapping is complete.

Because post processing operates on the CIM rather than the source data model, operations developed for one source often are applicable to other sources with little or no modification.

Beyond ArcFM

Schneider’s CIM integration framework supports ADMS integration with systems other than ArcFM and can generate the Common Information Model from systems other than ArcFM for systems other than ADMS.

Smallworld Electric Office

CIMINT seamlessly integrates Electric Office with ADMS at Austin Energy. AE users employ a familiar GUI to export a feeder model from EO. The EO export component invokes CIMINT to generate a CIM feeder model for ADMS.
