Designed for use with a current/
voltage transformer, the IEC CT Meter
is ideal for monitoring energy use at
the distribution transformer level for
loss and theft detection.
Two accuracy classes are offered for high-current
residential and light commercial/industrial energy
consumers. The meter incorporates a full suite of
operating features with a comprehensive information
display and Echelon’s robust, bidirectional power
line signaling technology. Each meter, which is
automatically managed by an NES Data Concentrator,
can also act as a repeater to reach other meters. This
lets it create a power line-based meshed network of
meters that exactly matches the real topology of a
utility’s low-voltage distribution network.
Check Metering
• Measures energy use at the distribution
transformer level for loss and
theft detection.
• Both CT and VT ratios can be set.
Load Profile
• Up to 16 channels of remotely configurable
load profile data can be captured
at programmable intervals ranging
from 5 minutes to once a day.
• Load profile storage capacity is a
function of the number of channels
and the log interval. For example,
single channel, 1-hour data can be
retained for 180 days.
Advanced Power Line Communication
• Every NES smart meter includes
Echelon’s proven, standards-based,
power line communications technology
— the world’s most widely deployed
signaling technology.
• Every meter includes an automatic
repeating function.
• Communicates with an NES Data
Concentrator.
Power Quality Analysis
• Long and short outage detection with
configurable time threshold.
• Voltage sag and swell detection with
configurable voltage and duration
thresholds.
• THD event detection with measurement
up to 10th harmonic to reveal unusual
conditions.
Time-of-use Metering
• Remotely configurable time-of-use
metering leading to peak load
reduction supports 4 tariff tiers
with up to 10 tier switches per day.
• Rich calendar functionality with day
schedules for each season, adjustable
time zones, and support for daylight
savings time.
• Support for changing the calendar
through a pending time-of-use
calendar.
Demand Metering
• Optional demand metering allows
billing based on maximum demand.
• Includes support for block or rolling
demand calculations, configurable
demand intervals. and logging 2
coincident parameters.
• Supports local or remote demand reset.
Prepay Metering
• Energy credit-based prepay functionality
including varying
Energy measurement technology highly resistant to magnetic fields
