Abstract [eng] |
In this paper, remote error monitoring techniques for electricity meters are overviewed suggesting their utilization for in-service surveillance assistance. It is discussed that in-service error observation could provide valuable input, contributing to the timely detection of batches of meters reaching nonconformance status. The payback period analysis of the deployment of a remote error monitoring solution is considered. However, it is pointed out that such an analysis lacks input information describing the relationship between the remote monitoring system’s performance and its ability to detect nonconformance of the batch. It is also noticed that there is no published methodology for grading the status of an entire batch of meters referring to error estimates of a subset of the meters, when the uncertainty of estimation is rather high. |
