The meter TOU calendar allows you to configure any tariff schedule
based on any possible utility regulation. The calendar provides 32
entries that allow you to specify profiles for working days and holidays
through all seasons in any order that is convenient for you, based on
simple intuitive rules.
In the Season/Period box, select the season, and in the Day Type
box, select a day type for this calendar entry.
Define the time interval when this daily tariff schedule is effective,
based on the start and end weekdays and, for a multi-season schedule,
on the start and end month for the selected season. It does not matter
which order of weekdays or months you select: the meter recognizes
the correct order.
For exception days like weekends and designated holidays, define a
specific day either by a month and a month day, or by selecting a
month, a week and a weekday within the month.
There are no limitations on how to build your schedule. A common
recommendation is to use minimum time constraints and only when it
is needed to avoid ambiguity. You need not to define month days if a
daily schedule is effective all days of the month, or to define the start
and end months if it is effective through all the year. If you wish to
define a specific period within a month using the start and end days,
put this entry before allocating the remaining days to another daily
schedule without specified month days, so it would be checked first for
a match.
The above picture shows a typical single-season tariff schedule with
two daily tariff profiles configured for working days, and weekends and
the designated U.S.A. holidays.
