EN 16314:2013 (E) 5 Introduction
This European Standard has been drafted as part of the work being undertaken by the European Standards Organisations (CEN/CENELEC/ETSI) under the Commission Mandate M/441. This standard utilises the six functionalities agreed by the Smart Meters Coordination Group (SM-CG) (see Annex C) as the basis for its additional functionalities. It is not necessary for the Additional Functionality Device (AFD) to incorporate all functions. This standard builds on CEN/TR 16061 by providing specific requirements for the additional functionality that can be fitted to a gas meter.
This standard contains requirements for gas valves integral within the meters and controlled by an AFD where the capacity of the gas meter does not exceed 10 m3/h. Such gas valves are intended for interruption of the gas supply but do not replace any valve intended to isolate the gas supply. Communications for gas meters are outside the scope of this standard and are covered by the appropriate parts of EN 13757, which provide a number of protocols and transport layers for meter communications for Gas, Water and Heat meters. A number of methods can provide the additional functionality for gas meters: these are illustrated below, see Figure 1, and described in detail within this standard. The AFD can be integral to the gas meter, attached to the meter or remote from the meter.
