KNX devices are commonly connected by a twisted pair bus and can be modified from a controller. The bus is routed in parallel to the electrical power supply to all devices and systems on the network linking: [4] Sensors (e.g. push buttons, thermostats, anemometers, movement) gather information and send it on the bus as a data telegram;
To further the penetration and quality of self-healing, which reduces or eliminates outage time through the use of sensor and control systems embedded in the distribution system. [ 2 ] The goal of Advanced Distribution Automation is real-time adjustment to changing loads, generation, and failure conditions of the distribution system, usually ...
The device has two antennas. One antenna collects data from the sensors, and the other antenna forwards the data to the electrical utility control center over cell phone service. In some systems, powerline sensors may transmit information on the high voltage conductor itself rather than by transmission of a radio signal. [4] [5]
The term smart meter often refers to an electricity meter, but it also may mean a device measuring natural gas, water or district heating consumption. [1] [2] More generally, a smart meter is an electronic device that records information such as consumption of electric energy, voltage levels, current, and power factor.

DNP3 - a protocol used to communicate by industrial control and utility SCADA systems; DirectNet – Koyo / Automation Direct proprietary, yet documented PLC interface; EtherCAT; Ethernet Global Data (EGD) – GE Fanuc PLCs (see also SRTP) EtherNet/IP – IP stands for "Industrial Protocol". An implementation of CIP, originally created by ...
Automatic test equipment diagnostics is the part of an ATE test that determines the faulty components. ATE tests perform two basic functions. The first is to test whether or not the Device Under Test is working correctly. The second is when the DUT is not working correctly, to diagnose the reason.
The Inter-Control Center Communications Protocol (ICCP or IEC 60870-6/TASE.2) [3] is being specified by utility organizations throughout the world to provide data exchange over wide area networks (WANs) between utility control centers, utilities, power pools, regional control centers, and Non-Utility Generators.
