Configuring Networked Energy Services Extendable Lookups

Note: This section applies to both middleware and native implementations of the Smart Grid Gateway Adapter for Networked Energy Services.

This section outlines some of the extendable lookups that must be configured for use with the NES adapter. Refer to the Oracle Utilities Application Framework documentation for more information about working with extendable lookups.

Device Event Mapping

The Device Event Mapping extendable lookup is used to determine which type of device event business object to instantiate when receiving device events from the head-end system. Each value defined for the Device Event Mapping extendable lookup should include the following:

  • Head-End System Event Name: The event name used by the head-end system

  • Description: A description of the device event

  • Status: The status of the lookup value (can be Active or Inactive)

  • Standard Event Name: The standard event name for device events of this type, from the “Standard Event Name” extendable lookup.

UOM Code to Standard UOM Mapping

Usage received from a utility’s head-end system may use utility-specific unit of measures (UOMs). These custom UOMs must be mapped to standard UOM codes. The UOM Code to Standard UOM Mapping extendable lookup is used for this purpose. Each value defined for the UOM Code to Standard UOM Mapping extendable lookup should include the following:

  • Head-end UOM: The unit of measure code used by the head-end system.

  • Unit of Measure: The unit of measure defined in the system.

  • Description: A description of the unit of measure code.

Interval Status Code to Condition Mapping

Interval usage received from the NES can include NES interval status codes that indicate the status or condition of the interval value. These interval status codes must be mapped to standard condition codes in the system. The NES Interval Status Code to Condition Mapping extendable lookup is used to determine how to map NES interval status codes to standard status codes when receiving usage from the NES.

Each value defined for the NES Interval Status Code to Condition Mapping extendable lookup should include the following:

  • Interval Status: The NES interval status code

  • Condition: The condition code to which the interval status code is to be mapped, from the Measurement Condition extendable lookup.

  • Description: A description of the interval status code.

  • Priority: The priority of the interval status code, represented as a numeric value where larger numbers correlate to higher priorities.
