A consultation on proposed changes to the Installation Validity Period (IVP) end date for SMETS2 v2.0 equipment, the setting of an IVP end date for SMETS2 v3.1 equipment and the setting of Maintenance Validity Period (MVP) end dates to SMETS2 v2.0 & SMETS2 v3.1 equipment.

This consultation does not propose to change any IVP or MVP values for CHTS.  As GBCS v3.1 has never been used in production devices, it is proposed all content will be removed from that specification when GVCS v3.2 is designated.

Full details of changes proposed can be found here.
