Bhisaji Surve This document provides a thorough overview of the testing protocols and standards for smart meters, which are essential parts of the contemporary smart grid. It emphasizes the switch from analog to digital smart meters, which provide two-way communication and real-time data on electricity consumption. In order to guarantee accuracy, dependability, conformity with international standards such as those from the IEC, NIST, and BIS, and the protection of customer data, the document highlights the significance of conducting thorough testing. In order to evaluate several performance factors including insulation, accuracy, and electromagnetic compatibility, it covers a variety of tests, such as metrology, load switch capability, data exchange protocols, and communicability. Smart meters must be thoroughly tested and validated in order for them to operate effectively, reliably, and safely. This will help utilities minimize revenue losses and encourage good energy management. 2024 2024 17 25 10.54216/JCHCI.070102 https://www.americaspg.com/articleinfo/25/show/2648
