Meter - Activities
This subject area can be used to answer a variety of business questions related to device commands, service orders, and field work activities.
Device Commands: This section of Meter - Activities can be used to visualize Smart Grid Gateway commands issued. These analytics will examine smart meter (AMI) command counts and duration. Answer questions like these:
- Is there a particular time of day when the AMI network is over-saturated? Are we calling a lot of commands at this time? Could we move the time when these commands are called?
-
How many AMI commands are being called?
- How many disconnects are being called? Are we disconnecting people during very cold or hot weather periods?
You can also use maps to review and analyze device command activities data (such as over-saturated AMI networks, total disconnections per month, and more) in high-level summaries and detailed street views. Answer questions like these:
