Abstract

The purpose of this Guideline Technical Paper is to provide a summary of the different communications technologies available for use or application with EMS/SCADA system projects. All of the various communication media are addressed with a brief description along with tables of the advantages and disadvantages of each and recommendations for choosing the most appropriate communication technology. The technologies discussed are: twisted pair metallic cable; coaxial metallic cable; fiber optic cable (either optical power ground wire (OPGW), all dielectric self supporting (ADSS), or wrapped types (WOC)); distribution line carrier (DLC); power line carrier (PLC); satellite (VSAT, LEO, others); leased service; VHF radio (mobile); point-to-point UHF radio; multiple address radio system (MARS) 400/900 MHz UHF radio; trunked mobile UHF radio; spread spectrum UHF radio (monitor frequency for potential interference before installation); and microwave radio (2-40 GHz).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-14 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
