1. Introduction
The Mueller Systems LGSB SmartMeter is intended for indoor & outdoor use as an
unattended automatic metering Infrastructure (AMI) & control device. The LGSB
SmartMeter product consists of a Landis+Gyr Focus solid state electric meter and Mueller
Systems radio. The LGSB SmartMeter is fully self-contained with no user accessible
controls.
The SmartMeter interrogates the ANSI C.12 register set in Focus solid-state electric
meters from Landis + Gyr. Its main function is to obtain energy consumption, negative
consumption, and voltage readings for billing, distribution monitoring, fraud detection,
and conservation purposes.
Meter reading interval is remotely settable. Information retrieved from the meters
registers is temporarily stored within the LGSB SmartMeter solid-state memory. On a
specified interval, the LGSB SmartMeter will automatically transmit this information to
the Mueller AMI server via other meters or a MiHUB using the Radio Frequency (RF)
network. The Mueller AMI server analyzes and archives the readings.
The LGSB SmartMeter uses SuperCapacitors to support transmission of power failure
messages and to maintain the time of day clock. The SmartMeter does not use any
internal batteries eliminating need for field service.
The contents of this installation manual are intended for technically qualified personnel of
energy distribution utilities who have been trained and are technically qualified in basic
electrical principles, including safety procedures for installation of energy meters.
The installer should refer to the latest edition of the Landis+Gyr “FOCUS kWh Solid-State
Meter Technical Manual” for physical installation, wiring, and safety precautions.
2. Supported Products
