Unavailable Meters definition

Unavailable Meters include meters with sockets with power cut at the pole, meters that are booted on the line side, sockets that are not provided power due to a power delivery system failure, meters with tamper, theft or other human induced failures that render the meter or SmartPoint Module incapable of providing a read, a Force Majeure event induced failures of the power delivery system, socket or meter, and/or any system or meter maintenance issue that precludes the meter from transmitting its message to the network. Examples of Unavailable Meters include: (i) Cut At Pole: a meter for which power has been turned off to the socket by Customer; (ii) Booted on Line Side: nominally a meter for which power has been turned off by placing boots in the socket from which the power to the meter has effectively been turned off; (iii) Failed or flawed power delivery to the meter socket: Customer power generation, distribution or delivery system failure that has effectively turned off power to the socket and/or meter; (iv) Tampered Meters: sockets, meters or distribution assets that have been modified by unauthorized personnel rendering the meter incapable of providing accurate usage readings from that meter;(v) Broken TouchCoupler unit: the TouchCoupler unit is damaged by intentional or unintentional acts; (vi) Broken Clip: the clip that holds the TouchCoupler unit into the radio package housing is broken and the unit cannot complete the inductive electrical connection; (vii) Improper installation of the TouchCoupler unit: the TouchCoupler unit is not pushed all the way into the housing clip causing the unit to not be able to complete the inductive electrical connection; (viii) Unit not installed through the pit lid: the unit is not installed with the antenna positioned through the pit lid and properly secured with the retaining nut. The radio unit must also be securely attached to the antenna section; (ix) Radio unit not securely attached to the Antenna unit: The water-proof SmartPoint Module housing is not properly installed and secured to the antenna unit; (x) Damaged antenna: the unit’s antenna is damaged by intentional or unintentional acts; (xi) Damaged radio package: the unit’s water-proof radio package is damaged by intentional or unintentional acts; (xii) Data Base errors: the unit is removed from the system but not updated in the database. Still shown as in the system when in fact has been removed; (xiii)
