The most important benefit of the ring is that it uses pointto-point communication links. Hence, the transmitted signal is
regenerated at each node; greater distance can be covered than
with baseband bus. Another benefit of the ring is that fault
isolation and fault recovery are simpler than for the bus
topology. Therefore, the ring topology is considered to be the
most reliable topology. However, time delay for message
transmission is almost same as bus topology, and hence this
topology may not be suitable for time critical messages.
Star topology: In star LAN topology as shown in Fig. 6,
each station is connected directly to a common central node,
e.g. Ethernet switch. The message transmission time delay for
Ethernet switch based star topology has capability to comply
with IEC 61850 standard requirements. However, this
topology has less reliability because all IEDs are connected to
single central Ethernet switch which is highly susceptible to
environmental and EMI conditions of the power substation.
