  The rising use of information and communication technology in smart grids
likewise increases the risk of failures that endanger the security of power
supply, e.g., due to errors in the communication configuration, faulty control
algorithms, or cyber-attacks. Co-simulations can be used to investigate such
effects, but require precise modeling of the energy, communication, and
information domain within an integrated smart grid infrastructure model. Given
the complexity and lack of detailed publicly available communication network
models for smart grid scenarios, there is a need for an automated and
systematic approach to creating such coupled models. In this paper, we present
an approach to automatically generate smart grid infrastructure models based on
an arbitrary electrical distribution grid model using a generic architectural
template. We demonstrate the applicability and unique features of our approach
alongside examples concerning network planning, co-simulation setup, and
specification of domain-specific intrusion detection systems.
