The invention relates to a checking method and device for correctness of virtual terminator association configuration of an intelligent substation. The method comprises the steps that primary equipment and the topological relation of the intelligent substation are obtained according to an SSD file of the intelligent substation; the secondary function configuration, corresponding to the primary equipment, of secondary equipment is obtained according to the SSD file; the logic connection relation between secondary functions of the secondary equipment of the intelligent substation is obtained according to the primary equipment, the topological relation and the secondary function configuration corresponding to the primary equipment; correctness of virtual terminator two-end IED/LD/LN association configuration in the logic connection relation is checked according to a preset rule. Secondary virtual circuit logic connection errors caused by virtual association configuration errors can be rapidly and effectively checked, maloperation caused by the virtual terminator association configuration errors is avoided, risk of misoperation of running equipment is reduced in the reorganization, expansion and debugging process of the intelligent substation, and safe production and reliable operation of the intelligent substation are ensured.
