  2. ANSI C12.19 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_C12.19

    The "end device" is typically an electricity meter, and the "computer" is typically a hand-held device carried by a meter reader, or a meter communication module which is part of an automatic meter reading system. C12.19 does not define end device design criteria nor specify the language or protocol used to transport that data.

  3. Knob-and-tube wiring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knob-and-tube_wiring

    The conduit methods were known to be of better quality, but cost significantly more than K&T. [2] In 1909, flexible armored cable cost about twice as much as K&T, and conduit cost about three times the price of K&T. [6] Knob and tube wiring persisted since it allowed owners to wire a building for electricity at lower cost.

  4. Meter-Bus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meter-Bus

    M-Bus or Meter-Bus is a European standard (EN 13757-2 physical and link layer, EN 13757-3 application layer) for the remote reading of water, gas or electricity meters. M-Bus is also usable for other types of consumption meters, such as heating systems or water meters. The M-Bus interface is made for communication on two wires, making it cost ...

    Optical port on a digital kilowatt-hour meter Optical port on a heat meter Optical port on a smart kilowatt-hour meter. IEC 62056 is a set of standards for electricity metering data exchange by International Electrotechnical Commission. The IEC 62056 standards are the international standard versions of the DLMS/COSEM specification.

  6. Electrical system design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_system_design

    Electrical system design is the design of electrical systems. This can be as simple as a flashlight cell connected through two wires to a light bulb or as involved as the Space Shuttle. Electrical systems are groups of electrical components connected to carry out some operation. Often the systems are combined with other systems.

  7. Cable tray - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable_tray

    In the electrical wiring of buildings, a cable tray system is used to support insulated electrical cables used for power distribution, control, and communication. Cable trays are used as an alternative to open wiring or electrical conduit systems, and are commonly used for cable management in commercial and industrial construction.

  8. Open metering system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Metering_System

    The open metering system of the Open Metering System Group e.V. stands for a manufacturer- and media-independent standardization for Meter-Bus (M-Bus) based communication between utility meters (electricity, gas, water, thermal energy), submetering (cold/hot water, thermal energy, heat cost allocators), and systems in the field of smart meters.

  9. Common Information Model (electricity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Information_Model...

    CIM models the network itself using the 'wires model'. It describes the basic components used to transport electricity. Measurements of power are modeled by another class. These measurements support the management of power flow at the transmission level, and by extension, the modeling of power through a revenue meter on the distribution network.
