Enel Grids is looking for a portable device that can be carried by field technicians in order to connect with – and verify from a distance – the smart meter in question. The connection is made by attaching the device to the physical electric wires that connect to the meter and then using a powerline protocol to interact and communicate with it, specifically the version used by Enel in Spain known as “Meters and More.” The device must have a display for basic configuration, connection procedure, diagnostics, information and basic feedback for the technician. At the same time, the device must have a Bluetooth connection to enable meter access from a smart phone and provide advanced functionality. Proposals are accepted from all over the world, but the testing phase will be conducted in Spain.
