Network engineers use Optical Time Domain Reflectometers (OTDRs) and optical power meters to accurately measure the loss at each port. These measurements are crucial for verifying that a splitter meets specifications before installation in a network. These are known as passive optical splitters, and they perform the function. Planar Lightwave Circuit (PLC) splitters are essential components in passive optical networks (PONs), allowing a single optical input to be divided into multiple output signals. When light travels through these splitters, some signal strength is inevitably lost.
The Energy Networks Association (ENA) is the body representing energy networks in the UK and Ireland. The ENA provide guidance within Appendix B (Spatial requirements for whole current metering) of its publication Energy Recommendation G87. In addition to the National Electrical Code, National Electrical Safety Code, and state and local building codes, MTE has installation requirements which must be followed. Please check with an MTE engineer or representative before locating the meter base or if you have questions about requirements.

We set rules suppliers must follow to install and maintain energy meters so that customers can monitor their usage and get accurate bills.
