Emergency Credit; Non-Disconnection Calendar - Honeywell AS302P Operating Instructions Manual

__________________________________________________________________________

17.5. Emergency Credit

Emergency Credit can be offered to a Customer if their Meter Balance is below the
Emergency Credit Threshold (which is a configurable monitory value). An Alert will
also be sent:
•
Via the HAN to notify the Customer
•
Via the WAN to the Supplier
The amount of Emergency Credit Available (Emergency Credit Limit) to the Customer is a configurable monetary amount.
The Emergency Credit Threshold and Emergency Credit Limit can be changed at any time, however if Emergency Credit is
already Accepted / In Use / Used, then the original values will be maintained until the Emergency Credit becomes
Unavailable or Available again. The Transition States for Emergency Credit is shown in 34.11.
The Emergency Credit Balance (the amount of Emergency Credit available to use) will be available on the display for the
Customer.
The Emergency Credit Balance will reduce once the Meter Balance is exhausted. This reduction is based on:
•
Energy Usage – Price applicable at the time
•
Recovery of any Debt configured in the meter
•
Recovery of Standing Charge (if not suspended)
The Emergency Credit Balance is updated every second.
This Emergency Credit Balance will be reset if a command is received by the meter to reset the Meter Balance.
The amount of Emergency Credit Used will be added to the Debt to Clear amount.
Once Emergency Credit is offered to the Customer it can be accepted in one of 3 ways:
•
Emergency Credit is accepted by pressing the Top Pushbutton.
•
Emergency Credit is accepted by use of the PPMID
•
A Command to activate Emergency Credit, this will be rejected if the meter is in Credit Mode
The meter changes the Emergency Credit Status to 'Accepted'.
If the contactor is open and if the combined credit of the Meter Balance and the Emergency Credit Balance rises above the
Disablement Threshold then the contactor will be armed (unless the Supply State is locked).
The status of the Contactor is shown on the display.
An Alert that the Contactor is armed is generated on the HAN.
While the Emergency Credit is available, the top 4 characters will alternate showing "spaceECspace". While the Emergency
Credit is in use the top 4 characters will alternate showing "*EC*". (These are visible only if PIN is disabled)
Once all the Emergency Credit is used then the meter will send an alert on the HAN & WAN and store an event in the Event
Log.

17.6. Non-disconnection Calendar

Non-disconnect (Friendly Credit) Periods are times defined by the Supplier when a Customer's supply will not be
disconnected if their Meter Balance, plus Emergency Credit Balance, drops below the Disablement Threshold.
If the Contactor is open when the Friendly Credit period is entered then the Contactor will remain open.
While the Friendly Credit Period is active and in use the top 4 characters will alternate showing "ND".
A switching table defines the periods for non-disconnection.
The following parameters can be defined:
•
5 Day Types
•
20 Special Days, if one of these are not active then the meter will use the Day Type defined in the Week Profile
•
2 Week Profiles, each containing a maximum of 2 Day Profiles
•
Three Seasons
Dates and Days operate from Midnight to Midnight and the Time of Day applies to all other days not specified by a Date or
Day.
