The invention discloses a substation automation information parameter setting method comprising the following steps of: formulating or maintaining a rule template library according to an information standard of a dispatching center; importing a 61850 static model configuration text and a rule template; generating a primary system model and a secondary system model of a whole substation according to the static model and the rule template; generating an information parameter demand schedule according to the rule template; matching measuring points according to the incidence relation and the naming notation between primary equipment and secondary equipment to form a final information parameter setting schedule; and importing the formed information parameter setting schedule into a substation remote control gateway device and a master station of the dispatching center. The method can be used for overcoming the defects of low efficiency and no standard of the traditional automatic information parameter setting method and mapping an information standard into an actual measuring point of an automatic device in the substation to form a substation remote control information list used by substation and master station ends.
