How Can Smart Meters Ensure That Power Is Not Cut Off When Bills Are In Arrears? What Are The Types Of Remote Power Protection?

We are not unfamiliar with the current smart energy meter. Its biggest feature is that you pay first and then use electricity, which avoids the risk of the power supply company not collecting electricity fees in time. However, for some large customers, this charging method is not particularly suitable for them. How to solve the problem of uninterrupted power supply when encountering such a situation?

3 phase smart meter is mainly divided into IC card prepayment, local prepayment, remote prepayment, etc. Among them, IC card prepayment and remote prepayment can achieve uninterrupted power supply when arrears. This is because three phase smart meter has an electricity overdraft function, which mainly ensures that users will not be disconnected from electricity in an emergency when arrears are in an emergency. Users only need to go to the power sales department to modify the overdraft amount.

The power protection function of remote prepayment is to ensure that power is not disconnected in the case of arrears or timing. The biggest difference between it and 3 phase wifi energy meter is that the closing and closing of the switch, meter reading, and parameter setting can all be operated on the computer interface and WeChat public account, while power protection only needs to select a specific area for power protection.

There are two ways to remotely protect power in single phase wifi energy meter, namely hardware power protection and software power protection. Software power protection means that the circuit breaker will not trip when the payment is in arrears or the circuit breaker is on time. Hardware power protection means that after the meter reading system turns on the hardware power protection, the circuit breaker will not trip when the payment is in arrears or the circuit breaker is on time.
