Outstation. As the retreat operator, we make arrangements with other parties to provide you with some of the services on your retreat. These parties are independent suppliers over whom we have no direct control. Internal Solutions holds no responsibility for independent contractors (or weather conditions) changing services on the retreat. Internal Solutions is not responsible for any claims, losses, damages, costs or expenses arising out of injury, accident or death, damage, loss of baggage or other property; or delay, inconvenience, loss of enjoyment, or frustration, whether physical or mental resulting from:
Outstation. (A) The Facility Metering Equipment must include an Outstation System in respect of each Meter to transfer and receive metering data to and from the Instation.
(B) The Outstation must be configured so as to ensure that the metering data is capable of being used by the CfD Counterparty to calculate Metered Output.
(C) A unique Outstation ID must be provided for the purpose of transferring stored metering data from the Outstation to the Instation.
(D) Metering data must be collected by the Instation by way of interrogation of the Outstation at least once during each Billing Period.
(E) Where a separate modem associated with the Outstation System is used, either
(i) the modem must be provided with a separately fused supply from a secure supply or a measurement VT; or (ii) a line or battery powered modem must be used.
Outstation. The assignment of staff to a workstation which is located at a facility other than the work location (i.e., an outstation) shall be in accordance with the provisions for detailing as stated above, except that in the event there is an insufficient number of volunteers, the Appointing Authority shall assign qualified employees by class/level in least seniority order. Exceptions to such assignment because of a clearly identifiable hardship shall be made in accordance with Section 5.C (5) of this Article.
Outstation. Duplicate Outstation systems shall be provided which can be interrogated by Settlement Instations using independent communications lines. Where separate Outstations are provided each Outstation shall store the main Meters and check Meter data for one or more circuits and where practicable shall be configured identically. Two or more such Outstations storing data from different circuits may be cascaded on to one communication line. In the case of Meters with integral Outstation facilities (ie main Meters or check Meters storing its own data) the cascading onto one communication line shall be limited such that a communication failure is restricted to the loss of main Meter or check Meter data from a maximum of four circuits. The Outstation data shall be to a format and protocol approved by Scottish Settlements. Superseded The Outstation shall have the ability to allow the metering data to be read by instations other than the Settlement Instation provided the requirements of Section 7 of this Code are satisfied.

Outstation. An Outstation system shall be provided which transfers data to and receives data from a Settlement Instation. Where a single separate Outstation is provided for storing data for more than one circuit the maximum aggregated capacity shall be 100 MVA. Where more than one separate Outstation is provided, the main Meter and check Meter data shall be stored in different Outstations. The Outstation data shall be to a format and protocol approved by Scottish Settlements. The Outstation shall facilitate the metering data to be read by instations other than the Settlement Instation provided the requirements of Section 7 of this Code are satisfied. For the purpose of transferring stored metering data from the Outstation to the Settlement Instation, a unique Outstation identification code shall be provided. Normally metering data will be collected by the Settlement Instations by a daily interrogation, but repeat collections of metering data shall be possible throughout the Outstation data storage period. If not integral, the Outstation system supply shall either be from a secure supply or from a measurement VT, with separate fusing for each Outstation. Where a separate modem associated with the Outstation system is used, then it shall be provided with a separately fused supply either from a secure supply or from a measurement VT (see Section 5). Alternatively, line or battery powered modem types may be used.
5.5.1 Data storage: Data storage facilities for metering data shall be provided as follows:-
5.5.1.1 each Demand Value shall be identifiable to its respective date and time; Superseded
5.5.1.2 a storage capacity of 48 periods per day for a minimum of 20 days for all Demand Values as defined in Section 4.1.2. The stored values shall be integer multiples of kW and kvar;
5.5.1.3 the resolution of the energy transferred into the demand registers shall be within ±0.1% (at full load) of the amount of energy measured by the associated Meter;
5.5.1.4 the value of any energy measured in a Demand Period but not stored in that Demand Period shall be carried forward to the next Demand Period;
5.5.1.5 where a separate Outstation is used, cumulative register values shall be provided in the Outstation which shall be set to match and increment with the Meter Registers;
5.5.1.6 in the event of an Outstation supply failure, the Outstation shall protect all data stored up to the time of the failure, and maintain the time accuracy in accordance with Section 5.5.2;

Outstation. An Outstation system shall be provided which transfers data to and receives data from a Settlement Instation and which shall comply with the relevant requirements contained in BS EN 61036 for indoor conditions. Separate Outstations storing data from a number of different circuits up to a maximum consumption of 1GWh, and Meters with integral Outstation facilities may be cascaded on to one communication line. Normally metering data will be collected by the Settlement Instation in accordance with the following timescales, dependent upon which category of Metering Equipment that has been installed:-
Section 2.1.1 daily interrogation Code S6(a).
Section 2.1.2 up to monthly interrogation Code S6(b). Section 2.1.3 - up to quarterly interrogation Code S6(c). Section 2.1.4 - up to yearly interrogation Code S6(d). Superseded Repeat collections of metering data shall be possible throughout the Outstation data storage period. The Outstation shall have the ability to allow the metering data to be read by instations other than the Settlement Instation provided the requirements of Section 8 of this Code are satisfied. A unique Outstation identification code shall be provided for the purpose of transferring stored metering data to a Settlement Instation. Where an Outstation has a primary battery to provide back-up for the clock and calendar, this battery shall have a minimum standby service life of three (3) years from the date of manufacture of the Outstation i.e. supporting the clock for three (3) years without mains power. Where energy storage devices other than primary batteries are used, the clock and calendar shall be supported for a period of seven (7) days without an external supply connected to cater for extended supply failure. In the event of an Outstation supply failure, the Outstation shall retain all data stored up to the time of the failure, and maintain the time accuracy in accordance with Section 6.2.2. These time accuracy requirements do not apply where the Outstation clock is re-synchronised from a broadcast clock when re-energised (refer to Section 6.2.3). Any "reading" or "reprogramming" operation shall not delete or alter any stored energy consumption data or associated alarms. Where the Outstation is storing data for more than one circuit it shall continue to operate while any one circuit is energised. The Outstation shall be clearly marked with the relevant part of Code S6, i.e. a, b, c or d.
