Smart Meters
In a Networked Energy Services (NES) smart grid system, each meter uses power line (or optional RF) signaling to communicate with its peers in a meshed network. The smart meter and device network share a single IP connection to a utility's WAN backhaul, either through an NES Data Concentrator, ECN, or an IP-enabled meter.
Each meter provides a comprehensive set of energy services when operating within the NES system. Some of these services are: automated two-way meter reading, power quality measurement, remote electronic disconnect and local physical reconnect, distribution system asset optimization, outage detection and restoration management, blackout and brownout detection, comprehensive revenue protection, real-time direct load control, and more.
