1. General Introduction
AMI
Electricity is the most important source of energy in daily life. Distributed generation and
load-controlled principles are already established as the basic components of electrical power
supply network.
Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) is an integral network and system for metering,
collection, memory and analysis of customer consumption information in enabling a Smart Grid.
Furthermore, consumers can obtain the consumption information timely by multiple mediums
including in-home displays, on line portals and smart phone applications, enabling informed
decisions for efficient use of energy.
A Smart Energy Meter comes with two-way communication to enable connection with
centralized systems allow deployment of Smart Grid applications.

7.2. Metrology
The meter current sensors provide a wide dynamic range and guarantee high stability over the
operating temperature range of the meter.
The current and voltage input signals are sampled and digitized 42 times per cycle by an analogue
to digital converter (ADC) on measurement chip, then processed by a microcontroller to derive
various energy values. The microcontroller records these values in a suite of registers that are
independent of any meter configuration and are always available. These registers accumulate
their respective energy values in an incremental fashion.
The contents of these registers can be displayed at any time as instantaneous values on the
meter LCD.

IM series products support various measurement data
Bidirectional metering for import/export active energy, and 4 quadrants reactive energy.
Metering instantaneous voltage and current, active/reactive/apparent power, power factor
and frequency, for total and per phase value.
The minimum cycle of the unit for electric energy direction judgment is one second.
The minimum unit of energy metering in memory is 1mWh, 1mvarh, and 1mVAh.
The minimum unit of energy metering of output (communication/display) is 1Wh, 1varh, and
1VAh.
Data refreshes every second.
Support of up to 8 tariffs. Time of Use (TOU) of total import/export active energy, reactive
energy of Q1+Q2 or Q3+Q4, and 4 quadrants reactive energy are available.
Average values of the following items can be calculated: import and export active power,
import and export reactive power with default calculation cycle at 10min.
7.2.1. Energy Calculation Formula

The meter measures various energy values, in all 4 quadrants of AC waveform.
Figure 7.4 Geometric Representation of Active and Reactive Power
The active and reactive energy is calculated according to the formulas as below:
( ) ( )
( ) ()
The apparent energy is calculated by the method of Quadratic sum of active and reactive powers.
S = P²+ Q²
This method is precise at low current.

7.2.2. Energy Register
There are various energy registers of total and per phase are updated every second:
a) Active and Apparent Energy Register Total and Per Phase

Table 7.1

kVarh_L1+ kVarh_L1- kVarh_L1 Q1 kVarh_L1 Q2 kVarh_L1 Q3 kVarh_L1 Q4
c) Active energy register absolute and vectorial

The total energy is the sum of energy of each phase, which is recorded in 2 types of registers.
Record the energy always by adding this value, regardless of the direction of the flow of
energy, and the optical/LED or electric impulse energy output is according to this absolute
sum energy value.

| Energy_Abs L3|
1.0.35.8.0.255 Energy_Abs L1 |kWh_L1+| + |kWh_L1-|
Record the energy always considering the direction of flow, which is sum the export energy
and subtracts the import energy.

1.0.36.8.0.255 Energy_Vec L1 |kWh_L1+| - |kWh_L1-|
7.2.3. Accumulated and Delta Energy Register

The meter records the consumption of all tariff-based metered energy in up to 32 individual energy
rate registers. Each of meter energy channels (chapter 7.2.2) can have a maximum allocation of 8
energy rate registers from within this limit.
The correct configuration of energy rate registers is of major importance as they are directly linked
to the billing of metered energy.
The meter offers two modes of energy register operation:
Delta
The registers are reset to zero at the end of a billing period (EOB).
Accumulated
The registers are never reset and the energy will always continue to accumulate before reach
the register up limit.
At the end of a billing period (chapter 7.7.1) the energy rate registers are able to be recorded
(captured) to load profile.
7.2.4. Energy Register Capacity

Energy register is capable to hold value in range of 0 ~ 4, 294, 000, 000 Wh. When the energy
consumption exceeds the upper limit, the meter energy consumption will be cleared and this event
will be recorded.
Because the LCD display supports a maximum 8 digits, the energy register display will automatically
switch the unit among Wh, kWh and MWh (Megawatt hour).
7.2.5. CT-PT Ratio Operation

The CT-PT ratio is a feature for IM300-CT meter type only. The function of activate CT-PT ratio can
be enable and disable, when the CT-PT ratio function is enabled, the energy registers and
instantaneous value (e.g. voltage, current and power) will multiply the ratio.
The CT ratio and PT ratio value can be configured separately, and the maximum value of CT ratio
multiplied PT ratio (CT * PT) is limited to 500.
7.2.6. Instantaneous Value Register

The following registers are measured and updated every second:
Table 7.5
Voltage Current Power factor Frequency
Vrms_L1 Irms_L1 PF_L1 Freq_L1

7.3. Demand and Maximum Demand
7.3.1. Demand
Meter demand is the average power value based on a period, such as 15 minutes. It is mainly used
for customer and utility for energy consumption monitoring. Some utility adopt it for billing
purpose. The IM meter is able to record demand including import/export and active / reactive /
apparent demand. Max Demand can be recorded by 8 tariffs registers and timestamped
independently.
Figure 7.5 Measuring Demand in T
As shown in figure 7.5, T is the time interval used for calculating average power. Average power is
calculated in every “period”, and the result is stored in register named “current_average_value”.
Energy(cumulated in interval T)
current_average_value =
T
At the end of interval “T”, value in “current_average_value” and timestamp are copied to register
named “last_average_value".
There are 2 modes of demand calculation,

Block mode
The current average value is calculated by taking the energy accumulated over whole period
divide the period interval, refer to figure 7.6.
Figure 7.6 Demand Calculation in Block Mode
Sliding-Window Mode
Take the example shown in Figure 7.7, the demand calculation interval T is composed by 3
periods, and the current average value is calculated based on the last 2 periods result and
energy accumulated during period ak, and do step by step of each period.
last_average_value: lav
current_average_value: cav

Figure 7.7 Demand calculation in Sliding-Window Mode
IM meter use typically sliding window of 15 sliding windows with 1-minute period;
7.3.2. Maximum Demand

Max demand is used to record the peak demand value over the billing period, such as one month.
When a new value in last_average_value is generated every interval T, such as 15 minutes, it
compares with the value in Max demand register (MDR), if last_average_value > MDR, the MDR
will be replaced with last_average_value value. Otherwise, MDR remains.
MDR can be reset by automated-billing cycles, manual operation, or communication command.
Meter can record current MD and the timestamp of occurrence.
7.4. Real-Time Clock and Calendar

Calendar clock is used to control all data related to date and time. Leap years and deviation of the
local time to a generalized time reference (Greenwich Mean Time, GMT / UTC) is handled by this
function. It also facilitates TOU energy rate switch, demand and profile interval measurement and
timestamp of events. The calendar clock is optional in GMT calendar and Persian calendar.
The calendar clock is driven by high-accuracy RTC chip which is temperature-compensated.

The meter can be programmed to operate in Daylight Saving Time. In this mode, the meter clock
will be automatically set forward or backward at the specified date and time of each year. This
function can be configured for both Northern and Southern hemispheres.
7.4.2. RTC in Power failure

The RTC is powered from the main supply. During a power a failure it is powered by the super
capacitor or battery.

7.5. Time of Use (TOU)
The time of use (TOU) feature is used for tariff switching and management based on RTC. The IM
meter supports up to 8 tariffs, TOU scheme is programmable conforming to DLMS Blue book IC 20
“Activity calendar”.
There are 2 sets of calendar tables, active and passive calendar. The “active” one refers to the
currently running calendar, while “passive” one is configurable and can be activated in a specific
date&time.
The meter supports,
Maximum season tables: 6
Maximum week tables: 6
Maximum day tables: 8
Maximum time interval for one day: 10
Maximum special day: 200
7.5.1. Day Profiles (DP)

Each Day Profile is used for tariff rate configuration over a 24-hour period.
Start time of day profile is always 00:00. Resolution for interval is 1 minute.
Figure 7.8 shows example of a daily profile with 4 intervals:
Figure 7.8 Day Profile Example

7.5.2. Week profiles
Week profile is based on day profiles. It contains for everyday of a week is identified (Monday to
Sunday).
Figure 7.9 shows example of 4 individual week profiles:
Figure 7.9 Week Profile Example
7.5.3. Season profiles

Season profile is based on week profiles. The seasons are defined by start dates, which can be set
individually. Start date of the first tariff season is always 1st January.
Figure 7.10 shows 4 individually configured seasons:

Figure 7.10 Season Profile Example
7.5.4. Passive Calendar Activation

The passive calendar table can switch to active calendar according to the activation time, this time
is programmable.
7.5.5. Special Holidays

The special day facility is intended to allow a specified day profile tariff on days such as religious or
public holidays, to be different from the rest of the week in which they occur.
The IM meter can accommodate up to 200 special days. Each one can be either repetitive or
non-repetitive and have a different day profile (DP) applied.
The special holidays can be configured as wildcard format; therefore the holiday tariff can be
applied to fixed dates in every year circularly.
7.6. Power off Operation

Certain meter functions must remain during power outage period.
RTC
Tamper detection of main and terminal cover open
Display triggered by button
IM meter is equipped with a backup power supply to ensure these functions, including:
1. Super-Capacitor
It is able to provide a minimum of 2 days power supply without LCD display triggered during power
outage.
During power outage, the super-capacitor is the first backup device to be drained.
2. Battery
Internal Fixed battery, soldered on meter functional PCB.
Replaceable battery (Only optional for IM300)
Both batteries are specified to provide a minimum capacity of 3 years continuous operation at 25°C
and a minimum shelf-life of 10 years, with less than 10% loss of capacity due to self-discharge at
25°C.
The nominal battery voltage is 3.6V, if the battery voltage falls below a preset threshold value
(3.06V), battery low event will be recorded, and alarm shown as flashing icon on LCD screen and/or
LED.
During power outage, the power supply starts from super capacitor, the replaceable battery, and
finally internal fixed battery.

7.7. Profile / History Data
IM meters can bill periodically.
7.7.1. Monthly Profile – Billing (0.0.98.1.0.255)
Monthly billing feature includes:
• Capture related energy data to monthly profile
• Accumulate Maximum Demand data
• Clear all the demand registers of current month

The profile interval can be configured to 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 15, 30 or 60 minutes.
7.7.5. AMR Status Word

The AMR status word can be captured in 15-minutes profile data, the context of this status word is
described in the following table.
Table 7.10
Bit Name Description
7 PDN Power down: This bit is set to indicate that an all-phase power failure
occurred.
6 Reserved
5 CAD Clock adjusted: The bit is set when clock has been adjusted more than the
synchronization limit. At the same time the DNV flag is set because the
capture period deviates from its nominal lengths and shall not be used for
billing.
4 Reserved
3 DST Daylight saving: Indicates whether or not the daylight saving time is
currently active. The bit is set if the daylight saving time is active (summer)
and cleared in winter.
2 DNV Data not valid: Indicates that the current entry cannot be used for billing
e.g. due to time shift or if no values have been recorded during the capture
period.
1 CIV Clock invalid: The power reserve of the calendar clock has been exhausted.
The time is declared as invalid. At the same time the DNV bit is set.
0 ERR Critical error: A serious error such as a hardware failure or a checksum
error has occurred. At the same time, the DNV bit is set.
7.8. Firmware Upgrade

Firmware can be updated by means of optical port, RS232 port and RS485 port and remote
communication, such as GPRS. This function is implemented in accordance with section 4.4.4 of the
DLMS/COSEM Identification System and Interface Classes, Blue Book 10th Edition.
It takes approximately 60 minutes to download the firmware from the server to meter via GPRS
communication (depends on local network condition) or 20 minutes via optical port, RS232 and
RS485 port.

After downloading firmware, the meter verifies validity and integrity of the firmware and switches
to this new firmware automatically.
7.9. (Dis-)Connection
IM100 and IM300-AD1034 type of meter are able to be equipped with internal relay to connect
and disconnect supply to consumer for purpose of load control and prepayment. (Dis-)Connection
can be controlled by command or manually pressing button, or a preset action script at regular
time.
IM meters are also able to connect 1 channel of auxiliary terminals to an external dis-connector,
and control on/off by signal at maximum 250V/5A by an external relay.
As shown in figure below, there are 3 states of dis-connector:

Disconnected
Connected
Ready for reconnection
Figure 7.8 State diagram of the Disconnect control

The current status of dis-connector can be displayed on LCD.
And there are 8 paths from (a) to (h) for switching among different supply disconnect status.
There are 7 control modes for different requirements.

Table 7.11 Control Mode operation
Control Disconnection Reconnection
mode Remote Manual Local Remote Manual Local
(b) (c) (f) (g) (a) (d) (e) (h)

(1) X X X X X X
(2) X X X X X X
(3) X X X X X
(4) X X X X X
(5) X X X X X X X

(6) X X X X X X
Note 1, the filed marked in “X” means the path is applicable in the corresponding mode.
Note 2, In Mode (0) the disconnect control object is always in 'connected' state, so no state switch
path is allowed.
Note 3, Local dis-connection is always possible unless the corresponding trigger is inhibited.
7.10. Load Control

IM meters allow configurable threshold detection for management of load control. The typical load
control methods of the meter are:
Exceed current limit
When the current of the meter exceeds 1.2 * Imax and last for 60 seconds, the relay
disconnects automatically and records an event log.
If the control mode is in value of 5 or 6, the relay connects automatically while the current
returns below the threshold and lost for 60 seconds.
Exceed power limit
When the power exceeds a preset power threshold and lasts for a preset time threshold, the
relay disconnects automatically and records an event log. The meter also allows setting an
emergency time table. When the meter is in emergency time, an emergency power threshold
is applicative for the meter.
Disconnect single action schedule
A configurable schedule allows meter connection or disconnection at regular time.
The manual operation of reconnection is necessary, after the current has return below the current
limit.
7.11. Anti-tamper
IM meters are sealed to ensure no hardware interface or core component is exposed. When such
tamper event occurs, the corresponding event will be recorded with time stamped, and then
trigger alarm by LED/LCD/buzzer/message push action according to configuration.
7.11.1. Meter Cover Open

The meter can detect and record remove and closed of the main cover and terminal cover with
timestamp of the event. This function is also available during meter power outage.
7.11.2. Magnetic Disturbance

IM meters are able to stand with magnetic influence of less than 500mT±10% from the top and
front directions of the meter, but have magnetic immunity subjected to with any magnetic
influence of less than 150mT from the other directions, such as left or right side and back. The
power supply unit and internal relay may be impacted by strong magnetic interference.
IM meters can detect and record the disturbance of magnetic fields with timestamp of occurrence.
The IM100 uses hall devices for the magnetic field detection, while the IM300 uses single reed
switch.

7.11.3. Current Circuit Reversal
IM meters are capable of detecting and recording occurrences and restoration of current circuit
reversal and record accurately in forward direction in case of reversal of one or more phases.
Meter can detect current reversal.
The IM meters detect the current reversal when the power factor value is larger than the limit
value. This limit value is programmed.
Occurrence Condition
1) Line current must be greater than 50% of Starting current (Ist);
2) Current must be reversed (negative);
3) Last for more than 30 seconds.
Restoration Condition
1) Line current must be greater than 50% of starting current (Ist);;
2) Current must be forward (positive);
3) Last for more than 30 seconds.
7.11.4. Missing Neutral (IM300 only)

IM300 meter is capable of detecting and recording occurrences and restoration of missing neutral
and record energy accurately during such instances.
i. When the meter is in asymmetric current status;
ii. The neutral current is less than 1A with the duration more than 30s.
iii. All voltages must be higher than 60% * Un (below than this meter will power off)
The neutral current is over 1A with the duration more than 30s.
Or:
The meter is not in asymmetric current status any more.
Due to the fact that meter has an internal neutral point to prevent the influence of absence of the
neutral line to energy measurement and the fact that meter is not connected to protective earth
the detection of neutral break is not straight forward. There are 2 possible methods to detect
neutral break but neither of them is useful in systems with a symmetrical load:
Monitor current asymmetry as a consequence of the shift of internal neutral point.
Monitor sum of all phase currents.
In the case of absence of neutral line the sum of currents in the system is equal to zero but currents
are different in amplitude and RMS values.
7.11.5. Current Circuit Open/Cut

This feature is only available on three-phase meter. IM300 is capable of detecting the current
circuit open of any 1 or 2 phases and will record in forward direction. In the case of a No Load
condition, in any 1 or 2 phases, it will not be treated as Current Open condition.
The current cut event happens when the meter detects there is no current in the meter and the

voltage is larger than starting voltage.
1) Residual Current (Measured Neutral current – Calculated Neutral current i.e. vector sum of all 3
phases current) must be greater than 2.5A) Any line current must be less than 0.1A
1) Residual current must be less than 1.5A
2) Average of all line currents must be greater than 1.5A
7.11.6. Current Circuit Bypass (IM300 only)

The IM300 meter is capable of detecting and recording occurrences and restoration of
shorting/bypassing of any one or two phases.
We defined this event as an unbalance (asymmetric) current has happened.
Current bypass is divided into fully bypass and partial bypass.
Partial bypass:
1) Residual Current (Measured Neutral current – Calculated Neutral current i.e. vector sum
of all three phase current) must be higher than 25% * In (nominal current);
2) All line currents must be higher than 15% * In.
1) Residual current must be less than 15% * In;
2) Average of all line currents must be greater than 15% * In.
Fully bypass:
Occurrence condition
1) Residual current (Measured Neutral current – Calculated Neutral current i.e. vector sum
of all three phase current) must be greater than 25% * In;
2) All line current must be less than 1% * In.
Occurrence condition
1) Residual current must be less than 15% * In;
2) All line current must be greater than 15% * In.
7.11.7. Phase sequence incorrect (IM300 only)

The normal phase sequence should L1-L2-L3, if the voltage cables are exchanged in any 2 phases, it
will caused phase sequence incorrect event and the meter will record it.
7.12. Event Log

The meter is able to record event logs. The meter captures the timestamps of occurrence, some
objects which are configurable.
The sort method of event logs is FIFO (first in first out). The meter allows reading according to the
record index or timestamp. Used entries and total profile entries are able to be read out.
The event logs are as below:

8.2. LED
There are three red LEDs on the main cover,
Active energy pulse;
Reactive energy pulse;
Alarm indicator (configurable).
The pulse configuration must be adapted to the maximal possible pulse frequency, which itself
results from the pulse length and the conditions of the pulse receiver.
The conditions of pulse receiver have to be considered individually for every case, but the pulse
length can be selected and defines the maximum possible pulse frequency. Therefore, the pulse
pause (distance between 2 pulses) must be equal or higher than the pulse length, so the maximal
pulse frequency will be calculated from the inverted value of the twice pulse length.
