Smart Electric Technology

Upgrading utility measuring systems is the next big step in metering infrastructure

Electric utility companies now have the technology to better manage water usage with the use of smart electric meters. Smart electric meters provide usage information in short time intervals (hourly or shorter), allowing for lower billing rates for power usage during non-peak periods.Two-way communications for reporting accurate outage information and the ability to monitor the quality of the electricity are added benefits to using smart electric meters.

Two-way communications for reporting outage information and the ability to monitor the quality of the electricity are added benefits to using smart electric meters.
