Advanced single-phase electric metering

Advanced metering infrastructure

Eaton’s single-phase advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) meters communicate via Eaton’s RF Mesh network to provide key values, metrics and information from all major meter brands, including Itron, Landis+Gyr and Honeywell Elster. The cost-effective advanced meters provide key parameters such as interval data, voltage and power quality measurements, Time-Of-Use (TOU) information, bi-directional and net metering values, temperature and tamper indications. The fully integrated, tested and sealed smart meters are pre-configured at the factory to utility specifications. Eaton can provide meters with and without under-glass remote service disconnects.
