Why Should Schools Install Remote Power Meter Reading Systems?
The prepaid remote meter reading system has various functions such as the remote reading of meter data, self-service payment on the mobile phone, remote opening and closing of the meter, and identification of malignant loads. Many schools have chosen such a system to improve the efficiency of electricity management and ensure electrical safety. But some schools will consider configuring such a system. Is it expensive? What hardware is required?
First, let's take a look at the cost of installing a prepaid remote cost system in schools. Realizing remote meter reading requires three parts: smart meter, concentrator, and meter reading system software. Because the user purchases the company's smart meter and the prepaid remote meter reading system is distributed free of charge, the school only needs to pay for the smart meter and concentrator.
If you look at the price alone, some users will question that the hardware cost has risen. Because of the additional configuration of the concentrator, these increased costs can be recovered from other places, bringing more long-term economic benefits to the school.
First, through the function of remote meter reading of the prepaid remote power meter reading system, the labor cost and time cost of manual meter reading are saved.
Second, in response to the situation that people forget to turn off the lights in the corridors and classrooms of various teaching buildings and dormitories of the school, managers can customize the timing of opening and closing through the system to reduce power waste.
Third, the system has a vicious load identification function. When students are prohibited from using high power in the dormitory, they can alarm and trip in time to ensure the safety of students' electricity use.
All these have really improved the economic benefits of the school, and also realized the intelligentization of electricity management. The installation of prepaid remote power meter reading systems in schools is not only an option to improve economic benefits but also an inevitable trend in the development of today's big data era.
