Control and connectivity considerations in the design of smart meters by Jonathan Page, MSC Gleichmann - Part 3
The first two articles in this series covered aspects of smart meter design from the perspective of their operation within the consumer premises i.e. requirements for local displays and controls (part one) and sensing and measurement technology (part two). To be fair, given the topic is ‘smart meters’, much of what we’ve considered so far has been more about the transition from traditional power/gas/water metering technology, with electro-m...
