With the deepening construction of a strong smart grid and the rapid development of the ubiquitous Internet of Things in electricity, the fifth generation (5G) mobile networks will become the key technology to lead and support the technological innovation of power system and realize the interconnection of everything, because of its characteristics of "high bandwidth, high capacity, high reliability, low delay and low power consumption". The characteristics of power system and its communication requirements determine that 5G communication technology can play a key role in several specific scenarios only. This paper firstly introduced the basic technical principles, characteristics and key performance indicators of 5G communication. Then the role of 5G in future power system was analyzed. Potential application scenarios of 5G communication in power system were further prospected for high bandwidth, high capacity and low latency, respectively. Finally, its influence on power system in terms of physical system, information system and consumers are analyzed.
