PC37.1.3

Recommended Practice for Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs) used with Electric Utility Automation Systems

This recommended practice applies to, and provides the basis for, the philosophy, design, implementation (including building displays, testing, training, commissioning, and verification), operation (including maintenance and decommissioning) of Human Machine Interface (HMIs) used with electric utility automation systems. The visualization elements covered are screen philosophies, data presentation format, HMI organization and structure, menus and their hierarchies, screen navigation, graphics and color conventions, pan and zoom functions, clutter/declutter, dynamic elements, popup conventions, help screens, and methods used to work with alarms. This recommended practice is technology-agnostic or independent of various software and hardware platforms. Application to HMIs with small screen sizes or to vendor-provided Intelligent Electronic Device (IED) configuration software including HMI-like functionality may have limited visualization elements.

Other Activities From This Working Group

Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.


No Active Projects

Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.


No Active Standards

These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.


No Superseded Standards

These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.


No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards

These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.


No Inactive-Reserved Standards
