Automatic Meter Reading
Manual entry and recording of energy consumption, along with manual billing systems, are time-consuming, error-prone, and costly. CIMCON’s AMI (Advanced Metering Infrastructure) is an integrated system of smart meters, communication networks, and data management systems that facilitates demand-side management and enables two-way, real-time communication between utilities and customers. It effortlessly collects energy consumption data and allows for in-depth analysis to identify cost centers and opportunities for efficiency improvements.
Manual data entries leading to erroneous readings
Manual reading method results in delays ranging from days to weeks in actual billing due to long reading cycles.
Consumption disputes regarding ‘High Bills’
Hazardous location of meters puts workers’ lives in danger
CIMCON’s Advanced AMR Technology
CIMCON’s advanced AMR (Automatic Meter Reading) technology is designed to meet the specific needs of individual electricity boards, wind power generating units, and private electric utilities of all sizes and service types. It provides several cost-effective solutions to eliminate manual data entry or double data entry issues commonly faced by electric utilities. The most economical option includes a handheld reader unit that can quickly read meter data without manual intervention and download it to the billing software upon returning to the office, eliminating manual data entry errors. In more advanced options, the AMR system can wirelessly transmit data to the utility using cost-effective communication technologies, either at scheduled intervals or in response to abnormal consumption patterns.
