Direct Connected Energy Meter is our range of three-phase direct connected electricity meters, designed for installation in domestic, commercial and industrial applications. Direct Connected Energy Meter support flexible time-of-use tariffs and have a range of communications options which support automatic meter reading (AMR) as well as traditional manual meter reading.

The Direct Connected Energy Meter range includes models with options such as connection checking, revenue protection features, country-specific compliance, compatibility with automatic meter reading and advanced metering infrastructure (AMR/AMI) systems.

Features and Benefits:

• Four-quadrant measurement :
  • Single meter supports import and export measurement for co-generation
• Revenue protection :
  • 'Forwarded' energy metering: compensates for reverse energy polarity
  • Helps to prevent energy theft
• Configuration support
  • Flexible time-of-use (TOU) tariffs
  • Peak and off-peak tariff management for billing
  • Integrated with TOU pricing, helps reduce demand-supply gap by shifting customer loads from peak times
• Billing data (energy and demand registration)
  • Secure transfer to generate accurate bill for the consumer
  • Automatic point energy/demand recording for contracted billing month
  • Precise demand measurement to monitor sanctioned demand.
• Load profiling and interval data recording
  • Enables customer load monitoring and trend analysis
  • Data-enabled for energy auditing
  • Generates base data for monitoring system health and for detecting theft
• Event logging with time stamps
  • Abnormal electrical conditions
  • Attempted electricity theft with vector snap-shot of electrical parameters
  • Power outage management
  • Logging system condition helps load balancing in order to maintain quality of supply
• AMI capability on selected models
  • Integrated mains supply contactor (AMI-ready) and optional auxiliary load terminals
  • Remote and local arm, connect and disconnect capability
  • Support for AMI features: ToU-based switching, boost supply capacity control, remote firmware upgrades for future proofing
  • Versatile power-supply to allow integration with third-party network module
• Communication
  • Optical port for local meter reading
  • Remote meter reading (RMR) through RS-232 port to interface with a variety of modems.
  • Modular communications design in AMI variant with support for a range of communication devices like LAN/NAN/HAN.

Applications:

• Direct-connected domestic, industrial and commercial billing
• Sub-metering for commercial, industrial and residential developments
