Global energy generation and delivery systems are transitioning to a new computerized “smart grid”. One of the principle components of the smart grid is an advanced metering infrastructure (AMI). AMI replaces the analog meters with computerized systems that report usage over digital communication interfaces, e.g., phone lines. However, with this infrastructure comes new risk. In this paper, we ...

Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) is the basic building block for development of Smart Grid in Distribution System. The main purpose of AMI is to enable two way communication between consumer and Smart Grid Control Center of Utility which involves remote monitoring & control of energy consumption as well as other parameters in real time. Meter data analytics play a vital role in AMI system...
