Abstract: There are two kinds of time synchronization modes in the process level of smart substation, including IRIG-B and IEC61588, and significant controversy exists about which mode should be used. The time synchronization systems of smart substation in State Grid Corporation and China Southern Power Grid Corporation are studied, and the performance index, reliability and economy of the two modes are analyzed. The feasibility of the IEC61588 in smart substation is studied. The implementation scheme of time synchronization mode in the process level of smart substation is proposed.

Key words: smart substation, time synchronization system, IRIG-B, IEC 61588
