Formal title: Security Requirements for CoP10 Metering Equipment

Implemented

Summary

CP1450 proposes to amend CoP10 Section 5.6 to state that Metering Equipment shall either comply with the Smart Metering Equipment Technical Specification (SMETS), and therefore the security requirements; or allow for at least the levels of access currently defined. This will remove a barrier to elective Half Hourly Settlement for domestic and small non-domestic Metering Systems. The change will ensure that Meters that comply with the SMETS will also meet the CoP10 security requirements.
