Welcome to the UCA Task Force site
UCA Task Forces (UCATF) are collaborative groups of utility professionals, vendors, and experts driving adoption of IEC 61850, CIM, and OpenFMB standards. They provide a neutral space to solve real-world challenges, promote interoperability, and develop practical guidance.
Open to all UCAIug members, UCATF connects stakeholders to shape grid modernization through shared expertise, hands-on use cases, and alignment with global standards efforts.
Please read the guidelines for types of documents allowed on the UCATF website, found at the bottom of this page.
