CIMug Focus Communities
• Address:
– A high-priority need
– Where wide input is needed:
• Utilities
• Vendors
• Universities
• IEC WG experts
• Supported by IEC WG Technical Team
• Facilitate quicker, real-world-based updates of CIM
standards
• Asset Health is first, more are coming..
Asset Management at Utilities
• The Business Challenge
–

–
–
–
Aging fleet past design life
Limited resources
Increased regulatory / media pressure
Heuristic decision-making
Time-based maintenance is default
• The Business Need
Replace?
Repair?
Monitor?
– Accurate insight into asset health for
accurate decision-making
Asset Management at Utilities
• The IT Challenge
– Data location
– Data format
– Data stewardship

• Compounded by New Technological Opportunites
– Modern sensing technologies
– New communication solutions
• The IT Need
– A way to organize disparate
information from a variety of sources
?
Asset Health Focus Community Work
• Envision a CIM model-based architecture
– Enables analytics
– Supports enterprise-wide asset health insight
• With real-world utility and vendor input
– Define asset health use cases using 61968 IRM
– Suggest refinements and enhancements to the assetrelated portions of the CIM model
• Create a data framework for:
– Organizing data
– Supporting analysis of what matters
– Product development
Asset Health Focus Community Work
• Typical utility practice
1. Aggregate data from multiple sources
2. Generate asset health and risk assessments based on the
data
3. Generate asset health events when assessment indicates
significant change in health conditions has occurred
4. Make data available to other systems/tools as
needed/requested

Asset Health Focus Community Work
• Asset component ‘templates’ for common assets
– Asset & AssetContainer usage
– AssetInfo child classes
• Starting with breakers
Asset Health Focus Community Work
Template Example – SF6 Dead Tank Breaker
• Template
– Instances used to describe
an asset of a specific type
Asset Health Focus Community Work
• Templates
– Provide model-based way of organizing other asset health
information (nameplate/model/manufacturer and
procedure results)
– Enable application interoperability
– Will probably become IEC “Technical Specifications” not
“International Standards”
Asset Health Focus Community Work
• Upcoming activities
– Identify common breaker types
– Create draft templates for each breaker type
• Based on community understanding of what
information is available and what components merit
modeling
• Use existing CIM as starting point and suggest
enhancements as appropriate
• Document using Enterprise Architect instance models
– Move to transformer templates next?
Asset Health Focus Community Work
• Common Breaker Types
