This connection provides line voltage (i.e., 230 V) directly from the un-metered,
live supply connection terminal.
N - N

This connects directly to the neutral connection terminal.
L

This connects directly to the live load main connection of the electricity meter for
the use of PLC HAN when a site is disconnected.
Care should be taken when the meter is powered up and the communications
module removed from the meter.
N
OTE
The AC pins are no longer populated on the SGM1400-B family of products.
This is specifically attributed to meters that are deemed RF noise compliant
against the latest version of ICHIS V2.1.
Home Area Network (HAN)
The SGM1400-B Series meter provides HAN functionality for two-way secure
communication to other peripheral products such as IHDs, PPMIDs, etc. The
HAN supports the ZigBee 2.4 GHz RF interface and Smart Energy Profile. The
HAN interface is located on board the SGM1400-B and communicates via the
ZigBee communication protocol with the CSP communications hub.
Manufacturing Client
The Manufacturing Client is used for reading and programming factory objects.
Access with a password or authentication and/or encryption keys is required.
Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI)
The SGM1400-B Series meters have an AMI communication interface containing
two independent communication ports.
The SGM1400-B Series meters support a modular communications architecture
that offers customers a choice of AMI communication modules. The meters have
the capability to integrate with many different technologies.
The meters provide the means to configure selected errors, cautions, diagnostics,
and events for reporting through the AMI interface.
