Smart Meter Application Accelerates Power Meter Change

January 16, 2024

Unlike conventional meters, as an effective link between the power grid and the home, smart meters are more user-friendly and safer. With the introduction of smart meter replacements in various regions, the degree of penetration will increase, and quantitative changes will result in qualitative changes. Causes power change.

State Grid Corporation of China held a working conference in 2014 and clearly stated that it plans to install 60 million new smart meters in 2014, which is more than double the planned amount in 2013. According to reports, the 2013 State Grid Working Report at the beginning of last year required the application of modern technologies such as the Internet of Things and cloud computing to build a new generation of smart substation demonstration projects, and promote distributed power grid connection, smart grid control systems, and distribution automation. .

Installed 30 million smart meters and new electricity meters, and converted 3 million electric meters. Comparing the two-year work plan, we can see that in 2014, we quantified the work goal of building a new generation of smart substations and intelligent transformation of substations, while the installed capacity of smart meters increased from 30 million to 60 million.

With the development of electronics, information, software, communications, and electromechanical control technologies, the output of electronic energy meters in China has now become an absolute advantage and is gradually replacing the existing inductive energy meters. The development of related technologies has promoted the continuous upgrading of electrical instrumentation product technology.

Some industry analysts believe that in 2016 China's smart grid will enter the stage of improvement, and some old and old meters will be upgraded. Therefore, after 2016, China's smart power meter market will continue to grow substantially.

At present, China's smart energy meter technology, manufacturing level and application level of the world's leading position. With the continuous advancement of the international smart grid construction, the market demand for smart energy meters has rapidly expanded. The demand for global smart grid construction will form a vast smart energy meter market, bringing new opportunities for the development of China's electric energy metering industry.

In order to strengthen the management and control of the quality of smart meters, it is expected to implement a number of new technical standards in the third quarter, including a new standard system for smart meters, which consists of 12 types of specifications: functional specifications, technical specifications, type specifications, and safety certification specifications. Standard composition. This standard system has detailed regulations on metering, fee control, communication, power consumption, and even the wiring and appearance of electronic circuits, and has put forward higher requirements. By then, all meter manufacturers must adopt new practices.

In order to prevent the market from possible turbulent, more stringent requirements only involve the sample delivery procedure. The entire smart meter semiconductor market is reshuffled. Even before these new standards were issued, almost all smart meter semiconductor manufacturers had adjusted their product strategies to prepare for the new standards.
