MP146 SM WAN Coverage Date

Proposer Clare Stapley
Lead Analyst SEC Change
Date raised 16/10/2020
StageImplemented
Implementation date 24 June 2021
Latest update This modification was implemented in the June 2021 SEC Release.

What is the issue?

The DCC are required to provide information to Parties via the Self Service Interface (SSI) regarding the Smart Metering Wide Area Network (SM WAN) availability for SMETS1 and SMETS2 Devices. Some Users systems may use a hardcoded date of 1 January 2021 within their business process which may cause issue for them now the date is no longer relevant.

What is the solution?

To remove the date 1 January 2021 from the SEC Section H8.16 as this would allow futureproofing the SEC for Suppliers to continue to provide a service to areas where WAN coverage is yet to be installed.

Who is impacted?

Large Suppliers
Small Suppliers
DCC

What SEC documents are affected?

SEC Section H8.16
