This modification was implemented on 29 November 2020 as part of the November 2020 SEC Release.
What is the issue?
Version 3.0 of the DCC User Interface Specification (DUIS) is the first version that supports both Smart Metering Equipment Technical Specifications (SMETS) 1 and SMETS 2 meters, and was designated on 28 July 2019. The DCC believes collective discussion is urgently required to agree a managed process for all DCC Users to uplift to DUIS version 3.0 (or higher).
What is the solution?
The Proposed Solution is to include all existing and future DUIS versions in SEC Schedule 11 ‘Technical Specification Applicability Table’ (TSAT). By allowing these versions to be end dated, it will allow the DCC to manage fewer versions of the DUIS and, in the long term, reduce testing costs.
