Understanding the demand of an electricity meter
The demand of an electricity meter refers to the maximum average value of the electrical load within a certain time interval. In the power industry, it is common to use a 15-minute interval for measurement and calculation. The maximum average value within this time interval is the demand of the electricity meter, and there are two common calculation methods: interval-based and sliding-scale. The ...

An Ammonia-powered Fuel Cell Electric Golf Cart System
Ammonia (NH3) is a carbon-free hydrogen (H2) carrier, which enables liquid-phase H2 storage and transport under mild conditions. Although the concept of NH3-to-H2 has been frequently proposed, the practical application of NH3 as the energy source for H2 power automotive systems is rarely reported. To close the gap between NH3 supply and H2 utilization, we demonstrated an NH3-powered fuel ...

Anti-tamper AMR electric meter system solution
Traditional meter reading generally requires workers to go to the site to record the meter values manually. Such backward meter reading methods will inevitably cause many problems. For example, manual meter reading has a large workload, low efficiency, and long working hours. It is inevitable that things such as missed copying will occur, and the labor cost will be relatively high. Manual meter ...
