Advanced Metering Infrastructure Standards
In smart grid technology, the establishment of regulation is very important to enable
seamless exchange of information and use of the exchanged information. This is done by
defining some standards and protocols for the smart grid system. The exchange of
information and its use is defined by several standard development organizations like IEEE
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers), IEC (International Electrotechnical
Commission), ANSI (American National Standards Institute), etc.
Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) is an ICT based architecture, therefore several
standards are defined for this. These standards for AMI are important because different
manufacturers develop different devices to use in the infrastructure. It is desired that there
should not be any compatibility issues during communication between these different
devices.
Here, we will learn about some important standards developed for Advanced Metering
Infrastructure (AMI).

Conclusion
Smart grids advanced metering infrastructure is a system of components and a
combination of different technologies which require interfaces between them to
communicate properly. Therefore, there must be some standards and protocols to design
and build products that meet the compatibility requirements.
