Capacitor Bank Control Two-way communications Central control with fallback to local Remote configuration Reduced O&M expenses Improved operational awareness Eliminated manual switching of seasonal banks

Voltage Regulators Demand Response Conservation voltage reduction Tie in to Analytics software package Optimize system for peak load periods Remote configuration Obtain better planning information Receive immediate notification of regulator issues

Remote Control of Assets on Distribution Example: Distributed Generation Monitor and control Reduced travel time Reduced time needed to get all generators “online” DSCADA/DMS/SCADA/EMS support Digital State Outputs, Digital State Inputs, Analog Inputs T866

Vault Automation Safety Know what is going on in the vault before personnel climbs down Remote operation Improved reliability with data Valuable load information Enable distribution SCADA to these sites Reduce maintenance costs Better asset management

Faulted Circuit Indicators - FCI Dispatch Crews Directly to Faults Improved Customer Satisfaction Significantly Reduced Outage Time Reduce O&M costs NaviComm Communicates with up to 12 FCIs via ‘local’ COMs Communicates up to system via FlexNet or Cellular FCI is installed on electric line 19

Integrating into Utility SCADA system Sensus uses DNP 3.0 to interface into Utility SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system Sensus’ DA system looks like a RTU (Remote Terminal Unit) to the SCADA system (very common interface) Sensus has worked with many/most/all of the SCADA systems in North America Boise Support will help with all DA integrations Training needs to be sold with all DA systems

DA Differences Provide communication and control to utility distribution equipment Regulators, Reclosers, Capacitor Banks Pumps, Lift Stations, Valves, Gates, Grinder Pumps Alarming -- Fast Field Knowledge Every message important Alarms Data Update for SCADA systems Open/Close, Raise/Lower Control Signals Messages acknowledged in both directions Low latency important – round trip typically < 10 seconds Communicate with lots of different utility equipment Standard interfaces used to reduce time to market

Benefits of using AC and FlexNet Security Private network that is separate and utility managed infrastructure Not going to 3rd party Cell provider Encrypted VPN connection from Base Station to Sensus SaaS Data Center or Firewall to Data Center SaaS solution – Sensus takes care of all the security updates and audits Antenna Size and Coverage No large Point to Point antenna structure required Usually communicate several miles on Sensus FlexNet Speed Comparable to Cell products Immediate action (near real-time) Feedback can take 10 seconds round trip depending on configuration (serial/modbus, etc…) Data Charges No reoccurring data charge with FlexNet

Sensus DA Solutions Add two way communication to key powered equipment in the field Messaging acknowledged in both directions Flexible interfacing to endpoints in the field Flexible interfacing to SCADA systems WEB page based access for viewing field data Same Sensus Encryption (AES 256) supported in DA system

Selling the FlexNet system with DA DA Solutions along with all the utilities other AMI solutions Water, Gas, and Electric meters, Lighting, DR, etc. Ability to get more out of the AMI system (after metering) with DA Same Encryption implementation in DA Utility FlexNet network advantages – private network for utility on licensed RF channels Multiple simultaneous 2 way communication for metering and other applications Channel Allocation Meter Data Alarms Command DA DER Future Applications FlexNet channel allocation capability

DA Solution COMs DA solutions can be FlexNet, AT&T 4G, Verizon 4G The three COMs can be mixed and matched for best mix for the utility’s geographical area FlexNet COMs M400D (one radio for AMI meter message traffic and one for DA traffic) M400B (stand alone single FlexNet radio for DA) Virtual Base Station [VBS] firmware (approved for Water AMI & DA solutions only now) Ability to tunnel via FlexNet using DA solution to 3rd party endpoints connected to a RTM II (via RS-232 port) Less than 10 second round trip latency from SCADA to endpoint in the field and back. Cellular COMs Whole system Selected endpoints Communication system is cellular company’s No Base Stations needed, but lose the ‘one FlexNet system story When cell system is down or busy, the system may not be available
