Electricity Metering Data Exchange - The DLMS/COSEM Suite - Part 6-2: COSEM Interface Classes
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 62056-6-2 standard specifies a model for electricity meters as seen through their communication interfaces. This model is based on object-oriented methods and uses interface classes to represent different levels of meter functionality, ranging from simple to highly complex.
The standard aims to provide a standardized framework for exchanging data between electricity meters and other devices or systems. By defining generic building blocks in the form of interface classes, the standard allows for consistent communication and interoperability across different types of meters.
The COSEM (Companion Specification for Energy Metering) Interface Classes outlined in this standard enable the communication of various metering information, such as energy consumption, power quality, and demand response capabilities. The use of these classes facilitates the seamless integration of electricity meters into smart grids, energy management systems, and other applications.
