VEC Undertakes Multi-Year Meter Upgrade
In an effort to continually enhance our service to members, VEC is always striving to improve the meter technology installed at our members’ properties. Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) is part of this technology strategy.
VEC has been operating its present AMI system since 2005. The current type of system we use, known as a Power Line Carrier (PLC) system, communicates over existing powerlines to provide two-way communications between VEC substations and meters.
