Electricity metering data exchange - The DLMS®/COSEM suite - Part 6-2: COSEM interface classes
This part of IEC 62056 specifies a model of a meter as it is seen through its communication interface(s). Generic building blocks are defined using object-oriented methods, in the form of interface classes to model meters from simple up to very complex functionality. Annexes A to F (informative) provide additional information related to some interface classes.

IEC 62056-6-2:2013 spécifie un modèle de compteur tel qu’il est vu à travers son ou ses interfaces de communication. Des blocs génériques de base sont définis à l’aide de méthodes orientées objets, sous forme de classes d’interfaces permettant de modéliser les compteurs ayant des fonctionnalités allant de simples à très complexes. Les Annexes A à F (informatives) donnent des informations supplémentaires relatives à certaines classes d’interfaces. Cette quatrième édition annule et remplace la troisième édition de l’IEC 62056-6-2 parue en 2017. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Les modifications techniques majeures par rapport à l’édition précédente sont énumérées à l’Annexe F (informative).

General Information

Overview
EN IEC 62056-6-2:2023 is the part of the DLMS®/COSEM suite that defines the COSEM interface classes - an object‑oriented model of an electricity meter as seen through its communication interfaces. The standard specifies generic building blocks (interface classes) that allow meters to be modelled from very simple to highly complex devices, and includes informative Annexes A–F for additional guidance. EN IEC 62056-6-2:2023 is the 2023 edition (Edition 4.0) of IEC 62056‑6‑2 and replaces the 2018 version.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Object‑oriented meter model: Defines COSEM interface classes as reusable building blocks to represent meter data, registers, profiles and services via a standard communication model.
- Class catalogue: Specifies many interface classes (for example Data, Register, Extended Register, Demand Register, Profile Generic) with assigned class_id and versioning to ensure consistent implementations.
- Access control & management: Includes association models (Association SN, Association LN), client identification, SAP assignment and security setup objects for managing access and associations.
- Security and protection: Covers COSEM data protection objects, communication port protection and a security setup class to support authentication, encryption and protected access flows.
- Time & event control: Defines clock, schedule, script table and related time/event classes to support time‑based operations, tariff changes and event logging.
- Management & utility functions: Contains classes for function control, array management, status mapping, utility tables and image transfer mechanisms.
- Interoperability emphasis: Uses object IDs and standardized data types to enable consistent referencing and integration across communication profiles.
- Normative references: Designed to work within the DLMS/COSEM family and interoperates with related IEC and ISO/ITU standards listed in the normative annex.
Practical applications and who uses it
- Meter manufacturers: Implement COSEM interface classes in firmware to ensure compliance and interoperability with smart‑metering ecosystems.
- Utilities & AMI integrators: Use the standard to enable remote meter reading, tariff management, demand response and secure data exchange.
- System integrators & software vendors: Map meter objects into Meter Data Management (MDM) systems, head‑end servers and SCADA/AMI backends.
- Test labs & certification bodies: Validate device conformance to DLMS/COSEM interface specifications and security requirements.
- Regulators & standards authors: Reference the standard when specifying interoperability and security requirements for national metering rollouts.
