Smart Metering – Intelligent metering for tomorrow

Table of Contents

With the European efforts to further advance the realization of smart grids, the requirements for electricity meters are also changing. In order for all components of the power grid to be able to communicate with each other, they must also become intelligent.

Smart meters are digital meters that measure the energy consumption in short intervals and transmit the collected data online. On the one hand they enable an even more efficient deployment of staff because the data is read out remotely. On the other hand consumers get a deep insight into their consumption behaviour.

Bidirectional communication

But smart meters are able to do even more. They not only enable the two-way communication between devices and grid operators, but by analysing consumption data also allow to omptimise processes or to create new tariff models. The analysed data can for example be used to plan maintenance works more efficiently or to offer special night or weekend tariffs.

Remote meter reading

Smart meters work fully automatically. For the automatic meter reading of analogue meters Microtronics offers for example the data logger myDatalogNANOamr. This compact transmitter was created for the direct connection of meters and enables wireless remote meter reading. The collected data is transmitted online for documentation, monitoring and analysing purposes.

7 essential functions that a data logger must offer in environmental technology

In modern environmental technology, data loggers play a decisive role in recording, monitoring and analysing environmental parameters. But not all data loggers are the same. A high-quality device is characterised by certain functions that are essential for effective environmental monitoring. Here are the seven most important functions that such a data logger should offer.
