so.
Appendix B lists all relevant legislation, standards and codes that shall be adhered to as part of the
procurement, installation and commissioning of the sub-meters.
Project Contact
The Contractor should confirm all relevant project contacts at project commencement (refer Table 1)
Notification of Non-Compliance
If the Contractor is aware of a non-compliances prior to attending site they must refer to the Defence
Project Manager if changes are required on approved design due to site constraints or other issues.
Resource Data Management System
The Contractor shall confirm with Defence Project Manager prior to installation that the sub-meter being
installed will be connected to Defence’s RDMS.
If the sub-meter is being installed into a different data management system (i.e. a Building Management
System (BMS) or a Power and Control Management System (PCMS)) then they should confirm the
commissioning requirements with the Defence Project Manager including whether the BMS or PCMS
shall be connected to the RDMS (see BMS-RDMS Connection Protocol).
Sub-metering Installation Schedule
The Contractor must submit a detailed installation schedule to the Defence Project Manager and provide
the schedule to the Meter Data Agent (MDA) for reference. This schedule will allow the MDA to prepare
for remote commissioning at the commissioning phase.

Sub-metering Documentation
DEPARTMENT OF DEFENCE CONTRACTOR INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION – ELECTRICAL SUB-METERING
- 6 -
The Contractor must acquire the most up-to-date (on DEQMS) documents for the installation and
commissioning of electrical sub-meters. The following documents are to be pre-filled where possible
prior to site and then completed during meter installation.
Electricity New Meter Form
Meter Hierarchy Template
The Contractor must make contact with the Meter Data Agent at least two business days before the
scheduled installation to exchange the Electricity New Meter Form and provide other details as required
to prepare for meter provisioning. Refer to the Relevant Sub-metering Contacts section for contact
details.
Security Requirements and Site Notification
Prior to installation the contractor needs to confirm that the installation of the wireless meter/modem is
permitted at the design location, that all security requirements have been addressed, and that an
authorised building contact (e.g. Base Support Manager) has approved the installation and shut-down
process.
Site Access
To ensure that no delays occur due to site access issues the Contractor must confirm that:
All field technicians have appropriate site access and security credentials (access ID if required)
Contractor has obtained an authority/permit to work
Permission to bring laptop, electrical equipment and hardware onsite has been approved
through the Defence Project Manager

SECTION 2 – SITE INSTALLATION
Notification of Non-Compliance
If the Contractor becomes aware of non-compliances while attending site and changes to
the approved design are required, the Contractor must refer to the Defence Project
Manager.
For retrofit projects, any alterations to existing infrastructure shall not compromise existing
protection measures (e.g. for switchboards fault withstands including arc fault current
protection, ingress protection or form of segregation. Refer to the requirements of AS/NZS
3000, AS/NZS 3439.1 and AS 4278).
Current Transformers (CTs) Installation
The following shall be considered by the Contractor if required to install new CTs or retrofitting sub-
meters to existing CTs:
Contractor shall ensure that new CTs meet the specification
Contractor shall install CTs of the correct physical size and with a CT ratio appropriate to the
application
Contractor shall confirm that any existing CTs are in good operating condition and appropriate
to the application. Where a CT is deemed to be not functioning, the Contractor must notify the
Defence Project Manager and replace with a new CT.
Any new CTs installed are not to compromise original switch design requirements
Contractor will ensure that CT wiring meets all relevant local and Australian Standards.
CT Ratio information must be correctly recorded and checked as part of the installation details.
Meter voltage connection
All active voltage conductors are to be coloured according to their phase (red, white or blue). The black meter neutral can be picked up from the neutral link. All wires are to be seven strands 2.5mm2 copper as per the Specification.
In general, smart meter and modem packages will be powered by a voltage connection and burden less than 10VA / 50mA per phase. Consult the hardware manufacturer’s data sheets for exact specifications.
If circuits are directly connected to the substation bus or main switchboard bus bars, HRC fuses are to be used because the fault currents in a bare-conductor short circuit can be extremely high.
Any voltage fuses installed beneath a fixed panel must be safely accessible without the need to disconnect power to the switchboard.

Meter Mounting Panel and Meter Test Blocks
The following shall be considered by the Contractor when installing the meter mounting panel and meter
test blocks:
AS3000 and Service Installation Rules (SIRs);
Sub-meters installed shall meet the Specification;
Contractor shall ensure that installations do not to intrude into passageways or present any
safety hazards;
Where Contractors are required to install meters in high security, prohibitive or sensitive areas
they must make note on the New Meter Form so future personnel wishing to access meters are
aware of potential impediment;
Meters shall remain accessible to be read, maintained or replaced without the need to
disconnect power from the switchboard;
Contractor shall ensure adequate shading and air circulation for any external installations;
Meter and modem are to remain clear of strong magnetic fields around heavy bus bars; and
Meter and modem shall be installed in a secure location to avoid the potential for vandalism
and/or theft of equipment.
Meter, modem and aerial
The installation steps to connect a standard electrical meter, modem and antenna package are:
1. Mounting of meter and modem (with installed SIM card) in the location designated by relevant
design documentation;
2. Connection of wiring between meter and meter test block (Note: wiring needs to ensure that
meter is reading usage or generation accurately and not reading generation when usage is
occurring or vice versa);
3. Connection of cabling between meter and modem;
o The radio modem is to be connected to the meter through the appropriate cable port,
noting that generally the meter supplies power and data to the modem through this
cable;
4. Mounting antenna at its nominated location;
o The antenna is to be placed in a location that produces signal strength of at least 30%,
but 60% signal strength or more is preferred
o Where the Contractor needs to undertake works for antenna installation (e.g. drilling for
wires) they must communicate with the Defence Project Manager and obtain the
required approvals.
5. Connection of antenna to modem; and
6. Removal of meter test block bridging links for CTs.
7. NOTE: Most radio modems have a maximum operating temperature around 55°C and will fail if
left exposed in full sun, similarly most meters have a maximum operating temperature around
70°C. Ensure adequate shading and air circulation for any external installations.
DEPARTMENT OF DEFENCE CONTRACTOR INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION – ELECTRICAL SUB-METERING

Antennas
Antennas are required at all sites to ensure adequate signal strength for reliable remote
communications.
The antenna must support the frequency bands used by the Telstra communication
network selected (preference is Cat-M1 (LTE-M) followed by 4G followed by 3G).
Low cost adhesive antennas must not be used unless there is no alternative due to
insufficient space to mount external omni-directional antennas with a gain of at least
2.0dBi.
Note that many high gain antennas only provide high gain in one frequency band that may
not be available at some installation locations. Please contact the Defence Representative
if unsure about a specific antenna type is suitable for the network and installation.
At least 30% network signal strength must be available for the modem at each meter
installation location to ensure reliable communications.
SIM Card
The SIM card is to be correctly inserted into the modem – consult the modem manual for additional
information and correct installation procedure.
Installation Documentation
The contractor shall ensure that the Electricity New Meter Form is completed at the end of each sub-
meter installation. This form is critical in the commissioning phase and ongoing maintenance of sub-
meters.
Where possible the Contractor shall take photos of the sub-meter, modem and current transformers for
reference and send to the Defence Project Manager with the Electricity New Meter Form as this provides
valuable information for meter rectification.

SECTION 3 - COMMISSIONING & SIGN OFF
Power up
The Contractor will perform a visual check of the installation to ensure all components have been
properly installed. This will be indicated by the LCD screen on the meter and correct sequence of status
indicators (such as LEDs) on the modem.
Network Signal Analyser
A Network Signal Analyser is to be used to ensure the modem and antenna installation are installed
correctly and allow for reliable remote meter reading operations.
The signal analyser must be compatible with the Telstra Cat-M1 (LTE-M) network if
available, the Telstra 4G network if Cat-M1 (LTE-M) is not available, and the 3G network if
neither 4G or Cat-M1 (LTE-M) are available..
The signal analyser must display the network signal strength and frequency band
information for all available base stations.
The signal analyser must allow the connection of an external antenna to test the antenna
installed at meter installation position.
The signal analyser is used to test the antenna and cable installation at each meter
installation location.
At least 30% network signal strength must be available for the modem at each meter
installation location to ensure reliable communications. If the signal strength is below 30%,
then the antenna must be relocated to a position that provides sufficient signal strength.
Verification of Installation
Verify that all elements of the installation are working correctly by viewing the following parameters on
the meter LCD display. If any of the following parameters are not available on the LCD display, the
Contractor will need to contact the MDA who will be able to perform a remote configuration, provided
wireless communications can be established.
Modem signal strength
o The modem signal strength is a sample taken at the moment when the modem starts
up. Minimum signal strength of at least 30% is required, but signal strength of 60% or
more is preferred.
Modem
o The modem status is normally shown by a sequence of LED indications. Contact the
MDA for assistance if required.
CT ratio
o In most cases, the CT ratio will not be set (basic CT ratio will be pre-programmed to
5/5) until the MDA configures the CT ratio remotely during the commissioning process.
GPS Location
o GPS location is required so that the physical location of the meter is known to parties
not involved in the physical installation of the meter. The Contractor should ensure that
DEPARTMENT OF DEFENCE CONTRACTOR INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION – ELECTRICAL SUB-METERING
- 11 -
the device used to obtain GPS co-ordinates is accurate within 10 meters of the actual
location.
Remote Commissioning and Verification
The Contractor shall contact and confirm the commissioning schedule with the MDA in advance so that
the final remote commissioning and verification can be performed efficiently. The Contractor shall remain
on site to make any required adjustments in real time.
The following information is required from the Contractor as a minimum to perform the remote
commissioning and verification (this information can be provided before the installations are complete if
known):
Meter model, type and serial number;
Modem model, type and serial number;
SIM serial number (ICCID), Phone Number (MSISDN) and IP address;
CT ratio for installed CTs;
Whether the meter is measuring usage, generation or both
Number of phases, voltage per phase, frequency; and
Photos for equipment installed.
The remote commissioning will be completed by the MDA which will include any additional meter configuration required. The remote commissioning will ensure the signal strength is satisfactory, end-to-end communications are working and that all components have been installed correctly. If any components are not working or have not been installed correctly, it is the responsibility of the Contractor to rectify the problem in consultation with the Defence Project Manager to perform the remote commissioning and verification.
