Niclas, Business development director for Protection Product Management at Megger, said: \u201cAt first glance it might seem misplaced to talk about digital twins during an IEC 61850 focused conference, but in our view this audience is exactly the ones to target. Firstly, when introducing something new and futuristic, this audience is in the forefront of the normally conservative power industry, so the understanding and acceptance to new technology is high. Secondly, what the addition of a digital twin provides over the already existing IEC 61850 simulation is explained in our presentation and it actually ties nicely in with an IEC 61850 audience\u201d.<\/p>\n
This was the fourth time in a few months where the SMRT digital twin has been presented by Megger. Yet, at IEC 61850 Week, we managed to add some \u2018magic\u2019 to reinforce the key message, which is the idea of sharing the same data between the twins.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe had a lot of fun when we created the presentation\u201d, said Andrea. \u201cWe came up with an idea to strengthen the message by adding some humour, digital effects, and some magic; and please notice that there are no camera tricks in that! Special thanks to Hans Holmberg who helped with putting the presentation video together beautifully. It turned out to be very successful which we can see, not only through all positive feedback we get, but also from the interest in the digital twin\u201d.<\/p>\n
In just one week the Megger presentation was the most watched and within one month has received two times as many views as any other video published on Smart Grid Forums YouTube channel!<\/p>\n

The IEC 61850 international standard is the corner stone of smart grid and digital substations, so it\u2019s no surprise that Smart Grid Forums arranged a conference aptly named \u2018IEC 61850 Week\u2019.
