To meet the needs of both operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT) networks, SDN is emerging as a superior solution.
IEC 61850 standard is becoming more and more widespread in electric power industry today. А great number of installations and R&D activities involve application of IEC 61850 and many vendors offer IEC 61850 compliant products with less alternatives every other day. These circumstances call for the improvement of engineers’ competence. We are glad to invite engineers of your company to participate in the unique 5-day training course – Development, design, commissioning and maintenance of IEC 61850 compliant systems, which will take place in Rome (Italy) on November 7-11, 2016.
