Overview
This European Standard describes the EMS, which is primarily used to measure energy consumption for billing purposes and to provide the compiled energy billing data (CEBD) to a DCS. The EMS may also be used for other functions, such as energy management. In addition, this European Standard describes the main purpose of a DCS and its interactions with an EMS and a settlement system. This part of EN 50463: - contains requirements for the complete energy measurement system and requirements for all devices that implement one or more functions of the energy measurement system; - applies to newly manufactured energy measurement systems for use on railway traction units operated with alternating and/or direct voltages, as specified in EN 50163; - does not apply to portable energy measurement systems. EN 50463-1:2017 is being amended to update Annex ZZ.
