The scope of this part of IEC 62351 is to facilitate role-based access control (RBAC) for power system management. RBAC assigns human users, automated systems, and software applications (collectively called "subjects" in this document) to specified "roles", and restricts their access to only those resources, which the security policies identify as necessary for their roles.
As electric power systems become more automated and cyber security concerns become more prominent, it is becoming increasingly critical to ensure that access to data (read, write, control, etc.) is restricted. As in many aspects of security, RBAC is not just a technology; it is a way of running a business. RBAC is not a new concept; in fact, it is used by many operating systems to control access to system resources. Specifically, RBAC provides an alternative to the all-ornothing super-user model in which all subjects have access to all data, including control commands.
RBAC is a primary method to meet the security principle of least privilege, which states that no subject should be authorized more permissions than necessary for performing that subject’s task. With RBAC, authorization is separated from authentication. RBAC enables an organization to subdivide super-user capabilities and package them into special user accounts' termed roles for assignment to specific individuals according to their associated duties. This subdivision enables security policies to determine who or what systems are permitted access to which data in other systems. RBAC thus provides a means of reallocating system controls as defined by the organization policy. In particular, RBAC can protect sensitive system operations from inadvertent (or deliberate) actions by unauthorized users. Clearly RBAC is not confined to human users though; it applies equally well to automated systems and software applications, i.e., software parts operating independent of user interactions.
The following interactions are in scope:
– local (direct wired) access to the object by a human user, a local and automated computer agent, or a built-in human machine interface (HMI) or panel;
– remote (via dial-up or wireless media) access to the object by a human user;
– remote (via dial-up or wireless media) access to the object by a remote automated computer agent, e.g., another object at another substation, a distributed energy resource at an enduser’s facility, or a control centre application.
While this document defines a set of mandatory roles to be supported, the exchange format for defined specific or custom roles is also in scope of this document. This is achieved by defining two different encoding approaches to handle the definition of custom roles, either based on specific permissions or based on constraints to existing permissions. The definition on handling custom based roles was started in IEC 62351-90-1 and taken over into the IEC 62351-8:2020. Moreover, additionally to the definition of custom roles based on associated permissions, this document also includes options how to assign permissions to objects in a general way. Referencing documents will provide a mapping to a concrete data model to ensure an interoperability for standard roles used in different data models as well as for custom defined roles. Referencing documents might be standards such as IEC PAS 61850-90-19 or IEC 60870-5-7:2025 or also definitions by an operator.
Out of scope for this document are all topics which are not directly related to the definition of roles and access tokens for local and remote access, especially administrative or organizational tasks, such as:
– definition of usernames and password definitions/policies;
– management of keys and/or key exchange;
– engineering process of roles;
– assignment of roles;
– selection of trusted certification authorities issuing credentials (access tokens);

This document covers the track and trace events for the return flow of e-Commerce items, more specifically, the events that are most useful to the original recipient (if any) and the E-Commerce company that sent the item in the first place.
It provides a minimum set of events formulated in language that is understood by sellers and buyers of E-Commerce products. The logistic service providers (LSPs) involved can "map" their own internal events to the events described in this document.
A return flow is always linked to a forward flow that is the subject of CEN/TS 18055-1.
This document aims to describe only those events that are related to the returns flow. Therefore, this document defines and describes the exact moment that the forward flows stop and the associated return flow starts.
This document covers the following four cases of return flows:
-   unsuccessful delivery (item remains in possession of the last mile operator);
-   return to sender or equivalent party (delivered and later returned parcel);
-   a service for recipients to send (parts of) a received shipment back;
-   returns caused by failure to meet regulatory or cross-border procedure requirements.
Each of these cases will be covered in separate clauses of the document.
NOTE   There are some processes in case 3 that need to occur before the parcel enters into the Returns Flow and they are generally executed by the E-Commerce company (or a party acting on its behalf) ).
This document will not describe those "precursor" processes in any detail, but it will describe the minimum requirements in terms of information needed by the first LSP to be able to start to execute the Return Flow effectively and efficiently. The precursor process is similar to the RMA (= Return Materials Authorization) process used in business-to-business environments.
This document does not cover the logistical flows within the facilities of the producers and sellers of the items. These fall outside the responsibility of the CEN/TC 331 domain.
This document does not cover all events necessary for an LSP to track items within its own facilities.

This document applies to switching device for islanding, hereafter referred to as SDFI, for household and similar uses, primarily intended to be used for energy efficiency (EE) purposes with local production or local storage of energy, or with both.
SDFI are intended to be installed in low voltage prosumer electrical installations (PEI) able to operate in island mode as defined in IEC 60364-8-82, so called islandable PEI.
SDFI are used to disconnect the PEI from the grid to allow operating the PEI in island mode and further reconnect the PEI to the grid.
They are intended to be used in islandable PEI which operate:
– in connected mode (direct feeding mode or reverse feeding mode), and
– in island mode,
as defined in IEC 60364-8-82.
NOTE 1 See definitions 3.10 and 3.13 of island mode and for connected mode respectively.
NOTE 2 Switching of a PEI to island mode can be subject to local regulations (grid codes) or to specific agreement with system operators. Reverse feeding is also usually subject to local regulations (grid codes). SDFI are part of the electrical installation.
This document applies to SDFI for operation in AC single or multiphase main circuits with rated voltages not exceeding 440 V AC, frequencies of 50 Hz, 60 Hz or 50/60 Hz. They are intended to be used in installations with prospective short circuit currents not exceeding 25 000 A.
NOTE 3 DC operations are not covered by this edition and are kept under consideration for a future revision of this document.
The SDFI is composed at least of one switching unit (SU) and a control unit (CU) to monitor its switching operations from grid connected to island mode and reverse wise.
The SDFI can be provided with a communication interface for exchange with external systems such as the Customer Energy Manager (CEM) defined in IEC 63402 series.
According to the intended use, the SDFI can be interlocked with a system referencing conductor switching device (SRCSD) according to IEC 63445 or it can be integrated with a SRCSD in a single unit.
NOTE 4 According to its intended use, the SDFI can also be used as an interface switch with the interface protection (integrated or not). See 3.19 and 3.20.
SDFI are intended for use in circuits where protection against electrical shock and overcurrent is provided according to installation rules for low voltage electrical installations, unless the SDFI already contains such protective function. SDFI are not requested to provide isolation function and overcurrent protection according to IEC 60364-8-82. However, the isolation function can be provided by a SDFI fulfilling the requirements of the relevant product standards.
SDFI are installed by instructed persons (IEC 60050-195:2021, 195-04-02) or skilled persons (IEC 60050-195:2021, 195-04-01). They are intended to be used by ordinary persons (IEC 60005-195:2021, 195-04-03) and do not require maintenance.
It is important to note that the main overcurrent protective device of installations cannot be used as a SDFI in single dwellings or similar islandable PEI (see Clause D.5 of IEC 60364-8-82:2022)

The OpRa scope is the definition of a minimum set of Public Transport raw data needed to enable PT quantitative analysis.
OpRa does not go into the domain of service quality measurement and reporting: service quality analysis will use data provided by OpRa, but quality definition remains a contractual level issue between a Public Transport Authority and a Public Transport Operator or an operator’s internal choice for a purely private service. OpRa reports unbiased actual data (i.e. measured or observed), described and aggregated in a shared and understandable way.
OpRa focuses mainly on observed/measured and registered information, i.e. information which cannot be changed anymore in the future. This information is mainly an output of the domain “operations monitoring & control" as defined by Transmodel.
Based on the actual service, including delays and cancelled vehicle journeys, etc., OpRa considers the recorded reality of operation, either through individual observed and registered data at a given sampling interval (raw data) or in an aggregate way (indicators) and provides the data exchange format.
The approach documented in detail in this document is coherent with EU Directive 2010/40. It relates to the Article 4 of the Delegated Regulation EU 2017/1926 [16], as regards the historic data. OpRa proposes to complement NeTEx (dedicated to the static scheduled information), for the historic data, based on the underlying conceptual data reference model Transmodel EN 12896, similarly to the requirement of the Delegated Regulation EU 2017/1926 referring to the static scheduled information2.
