EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of IEC EN 62056 testing. IEC EN 62056 provides information on smart meter use cases and architectures supported by the IEC EN 62056 series standards that determine electricity meter data exchange.
It describes the standardization framework, which includes:
It also provides guidance for selecting appropriate standards for a particular interface within the smart metering system.
To facilitate the provision of interoperability, security, and efficiency, standards should consider all aspects of data exchange in an intelligent measurement system, including the functions to be supported, data models (semantics), data presentation (syntax), and communication.
Standardized interfaces will enable different manufacturers to offer intelligent measurement components that can be interoperably integrated into a common intelligent measurement infrastructure.
IEC standards apply globally. Therefore, specifications should be general enough to support a wide range of partially divergent or even conflicting requirements. On the other hand, they must be precise enough to support interoperability and interchangeability at all component levels.
It is left to the discretion of the manufacturer to decide which options a system component should support. However, to ensure interchangeability, the system designer must ensure that all components support a common minimum set of options. The specification of the minimum option set is part of the accompanying specification for a particular smart metering system. Supplementary specifications are typically published and maintained by major utilities or industry interest groups. Interoperability tests are typically based on accompanying specifications.
