Electricity Meter Certification Program
|
How does your company know with 100% certainty that the electricity meters you are going to
purchase and install are safe, reliable and accurate? |
| |
With the emergence of the smart grid
and the rise of advanced metering, new communications technologies, new standards,
increased meter data, energy-efficiency imperatives, end-customer issues and new
component solutions; the way meter systems are architected, designed, styled, packaged
and manufactured can vary greatly.
The solution to all of these potential problems is the
MET Meter Certification Program.
You can rely upon the MET electricity meter certification program.
|
The MET Meter Certification Mark |
| The purpose of this program is to ensure accuracy, reliability and safety of watt-hour meters in homes and business throughout America. Independent testing ensures that all meters are subject to the same standards and requirements. |
| |
 |
 |
Verify the proper performance and accuracy of electricity meters in accordance to ANSI C12 requirements. Ensure that RF devices and AMI components do not adversely affect the accuracy of the meter under environmental or fluctuating voltage conditions.
Verify meter accuracy at the full temperature and external environment requirements of ANSI standards. Testing includes extreme temperature, humidity, salt-fog, UV,
lightning surges, and vibration. |
|
| |
|
|
 |
OSHA approved to test and certify watt hour meters to UL 61010 for the US Marketplace.
MET is also approved by the Standards Council of Canada for standard CSA C22.2 No. 61010-1. |
 |
