Prime: Solutions For AMI Systems
2. Demand management
From the information received from the meters, the concentrator allows you to create
an accurate prediction of the energy demand in different time slots. This facilitates
the management of the generation capacity of power distribution companies.
3. Technical management
To facilitate the technical maintenance of installations, the system offers a number
of features, including the efficient control of technical losses and fraud-related
(non-technical) losses, the remote connection and disconnection of the end
user’s power supply, the option to perform a remote technical analysis of any
user’s electrical parameters - without the need for any physical intervention - and
the remote configuration of each customer’s contracted power. At the same
time, it allows you to obtain power quality data at each measuring point.

Not only power distribution companies and operators of distribution lines can optimise
their procedures. Energy suppliers, energy service companies and even customers
themselves can benefit from obtaining their consumption data, because the system allows
them to know their consumption habits and optimise their tariff or contracted power.
The new needs of the market, in terms of features and functionalities, have led CIRCUTOR
to develop the third generation of PRIME concentrators, the COMPACT DC range.
Design
COMPACT DC, the latest generation of PRIME PLC concentrators, offers a design
with smaller dimensions, making it suitable for most cabinets on the market, and new
features such as a built-in dual-SIM 3G modem with 4 digital inputs. Another notable
feature is that this is a compact solution in a single unit; telemanagement in distribution
centres with two transformers, or for dual voltage transformers (COMPACT DC 2 dual
concentrator). A 10 kV internal overvoltage protection device has been included in
the Ethernet port of all COMPACT DC models, providing protection for 1 minute. In
terms of the design of the enclosure, the COMPACT DC concentrator has a DIN rail
attachment and a complete LED light indicator system on the front which provides
quick and complete visual information about the overall operation of the concentrator.
The electrical connection is at the bottom, using standard removable terminals, thus
facilitating integration within the enclosure, both in terms of securing the unit and
accessing the wiring and routing the wires to conduits, terminals or circuit breakers.
LV Supervision system
The implementation of a telemanagement system allows you to find monitoring functionality provides a large amount of information
out information at the supply end and to interact with the measuring to the company that operates the grid, as well as controlling and

the grid, we must not forget the transformer substation itself, which the LV Supervision System are:

technology, designed for measuring in LV networks and
exporting the information obtained by PLC to the utility
company’s higher reading and billing systems.

residential meters
B200RCP / B410RCP
Type 5 meters
Residential meters make up the bulk of the systems that
have to be controlled by power distribution companies.
The PRIME system provides a more effective solution
for the telemanagement of this kind of meter.
–– Inclusion of a circuit breaker with two main functions. Thanks to the first function,
the utility company can remotely disconnect and reconnect the power supply of any
customer. The second is used for power limitation, allowing the contracted power
to be configured in each meter. When the power consumed exceeds this value, the
meter itself will disconnect the electric supply. To restore it, it will be necessary to
perform a safety operation, which consists of opening the main switch, at which
point the meter instantly detects that the circuit is open and restores the supply.
–– The unit has an internal memory that allows a load curve to be logged, storing up to
three months, at an hourly rate. This information allows the utility company to know
the consumption habits and adapt its generation capacity to the actual demand.

CIRCUTOR has integrated PRIME communications into the direct and indirect
measurement three-phase energy meters. By including these customers, complete
telemanagement of all supplies connected to a transformer substation is provided.
This way a more complete energy balance is achieved, because you not only have
readings from residential meters, but also from industrial meters, meaning that more
accurate information about technical and non-technical losses can be obtained.
