This Webinar addressed the soon to be published ANSI C12.22 metering standard. C12.22 Protocol Specification for Interfacing to Data Communication Networks provides an application layer standard for network communications, designed to transport C12.19 standard data tables in electric metering over any network. The open protocol proposed in the ANSI C12.22 standard provides the same opportunity for meter communications over networks. Members have free access to the Webinar here.
