IoT electricity meter , the application and advantages is inseparable from the support provided by system software. Only by collecting various types of electricity consumption data, transforming it, and utilizing it in a targeted manner can the benefits be achieved. In the process of data interaction and information transmission, issues related to information security and network security arise. The National Power Management System is related to the safety of a country's electricity consumption. Security is extremely important. Once it is attacked by hackers or intentionally destroyed by criminals, the consequences will be disastrous. Therefore, the IoT electricity meter data transmission process will be encrypted or a professional encryption chip will be used; the system platform software will be equipped with professional firewall and anti-virus software.
The stability and reliability of IoT electricity meter communication is the foundation. Only smooth communication interactions can ensure the normal and orderly operation of the entire system solution. In terms of ensuring the reliability of the IoT electricity meter communication network, R&D designers and product planners have done a lot of planning and work. Different communication methods are chosen based on the specific installation and usage environment. The modular design concept is adopted for designing an IoT electricity meter. The communication module is separated from the main body of the IoT electricity meter so that different communication modules can be easily replaced on site. It supports a hot-swappable IoT electricity meter that can be plugged in and replaced at any time during operation.
Use dual-mode communication methods such as PLC LoRa on projects where cost control allows, and use two different types of communication methods to complement each other. When the PLC's communication fails, it will automatically switch to LoRa for communication. In the function design of an IoT electricity meter, a process has been designed to compensate for communication failures. When communication fails, the IoT electricity meter stores the data. When communication is successfully restored, the stored data will be packaged and uploaded. In addition, after the design, the local acquisition interface passes through the local interface. Get the data import system platform. On the system platform side, if the system platform obtains data from an IoT electricity meter for a long period of time (such as 24 hours or 48 hours), An alarm will be generated to notify the relevant maintenance personnel.
IoT electricity meters give traditional IoT electricity meters a new lease on life and vitality, while two-way communication of data enables human-computer interaction. Electricity usage data is transmitted to the system platform and mobile app in a timely manner, allowing users to grasp their own electricity usage in real time. This strengthens awareness of safe electricity use and energy conservation (the effect of which can be achieved by changing electricity usage periods and habits). Through the collection, statistics, and analysis of large amounts of power consumption data from IoT electricity meters, power companies achieve digital, refined, and scientific management. This improves the quality of the power grid and better serves users.
