The Sienna Split Single Phase, DIN Rail, Wired meter is a 4-terminal bottom connect 80A DIN rail mounted Class1
SSP pre-payment meter. It employs two wire current loop communication between the MCU (Metering Control
Unit) and the CIU (Customer Interface Unit).
The meter is rated at 230V (80A) with an operating temperature range of -15 °C to +55 °C with Class 1 active energy accuracy. The terminal arrangement is bottom connect and the IP rating of the meter is IP54.
The meter is configurable for either STS pre-payment or postpayment operation. It incorporates a tamper detection and disconnection feature. Communication with the meter is via an IEC 62055-52 protocol optical port, however provision has been made to extend the communication options in the future to allow for back-end system communication.
The split metering configuration allows for revenue protection by separating the meter, that is securely installed in a metering enclosure, from the CIU that is on the customer premises.
METERING CONTROL UNIT (MCU)
The MCU consists of the metering control elements: metrology circuits; STS token decryption and load monitoring with respective disconnecting and reconnecting actions. The IEC 62055-52 optical interface is used for 2-way communication such as data extraction and STS token transfer.
Bi-colour LED status indicators are used to identify various meter states such as the relay state, tamper mode and communication status, adding a further level of troubleshooting without requiring access to the customer premises.
CUSTOMER INTERFACE UNIT (CIU)
The CIU serves as the customer interface to the meter. The large LCD display has language independent icons indicating the meter
status. A low credit threshold function notifies the user of a low credit condition by audible alarm and indication on the LCD. The
keypad incorporates braille features for the partially sighted.
Customer focussed short codes are available to assist managing power consumption by, for example, displaying total kWh consumed or the instantaneous power.
