Electricity metering data exchange - The DLMS/COSEM suite - Part 6-1: Object Identification System (OBIS)

IEC 62056-6-1:2015 specifies the overall structure of the OBject Identification System (OBIS) and the mapping of all commonly used data items in metering equipment to their identification codes. OBIS provides a unique identifier for all data within the metering equipment, including not only measurement values, but also abstract values used for configuration or obtaining information about the behaviour of the metering equipment. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition of IEC 62056-6-1, published in 2013. It constitutes a technical revision. The main technical changes with respect to the previous edition are listed in Annex B (informative).

Echange des données de comptage de l'électricité - La suite DLMS/COSEM - Partie 6-1: Système d'identification des objets (OBIS)

L'IEC 62056-6-1:2015 spécifie la structure globale du Système d'Identification d'OBjet (OBIS) et la mise en correspondance de tous les éléments de données couramment utilisés dans le matériel de comptage avec leurs codes d'identification. Le système OBIS fournit un identifiant unique pour toutes les données du matériel de comptage, incluant non seulement les valeurs de mesure, mais également des valeurs abstraites utilisées pour la configuration ou pour obtenir des informations sur le comportement du matériel de comptage. Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition de l'IEC 62056-6-1, parue en 2013. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Les modifications techniques majeures par rapport à l'édition précédente sont énumérées dans l'Annexe B (informative).

Izmenjava podatkov pri merjenju električne energije - Niz DLMS/COSEM - 6-1. del: Sistem za prepoznavanje objektov (OBIS)

Ta del standarda IEC 62056 določa splošno strukturo sistema za prepoznavanje objektov (OBIS) in preslikave vseh pogosto uporabljanih podatkovnih elementov v opremi za merjenje v njihove identifikacijske oznake.
Sistem za prepoznavanje objektov zagotavlja enolično oznako za vse podatke v opremi za merjenje, vključno z vrednostmi meritev in abstraktnimi vrednostmi, ki se uporabljajo za konfiguracijo ali pridobivanje informacij o delovanju opreme za merjenje. Oznake ID, opredeljene v tem standardu, se uporabljajo za prepoznavanje:
• logičnih imen različnih primerkov integriranih vezij ali objektov, kot je opredeljeno v standardu IEC 62056-6-2;
• podatkov, prenesenih prek komunikacijskih vodov;
• podatkov, prikazanih prek opreme za merjenje (glej točko A.2).
Ta standard se uporablja za vse vrste opreme za merjenje, kot so vgrajeni števci, modularni števci, tarifni priključki, podatkovni koncentratorji itd.
Za potrebe opreme za merjenje energije, ki ni električna energija, kombinirane opreme za merjenje več kot ene vrste energije ali opreme za merjenje z več fizičnimi merilnimi kanali sta uvedena koncepta medija in kanalov. To omogoča prepoznavanje merilnih podatkov z različnih virov. Čeprav ta standard v celoti opredeljuje strukturo sistema prepoznavanja za druge medije, je treba preslikavo podatkovnih elementov, povezanih z energijo druge vrste, v oznake ID izvesti ločeno.
OPOMBA: Standard EN 13757-1 opredeljuje oznake za opremo za merjenje energije, ki ni električna energija: delilniki stroškov, hlajenje, ogrevanje, plin, hladna in vroča voda.
