What are some of the specific benefits of AMI?

  • Improves out­age noti­fi­ca­tion and man­age­ment process.
  • Pro­vides addi­tion­al meter­ing data to bet­ter assist mem­bers with billing and ser­vice ques­tions.
  • Gives York Elec­tric the capa­bil­i­ty to pro­vide mem­bers with valu­able usage infor­ma­tion such as con­sump­tion pat­terns, out­age and blink count his­to­ry, and volt­age infor­ma­tion.
  • Improves meter read­ing accu­ra­cy and pro­vides con­sis­tent billing peri­ods. With an AMI sys­tem, meters can be auto­mat­i­cal­ly set to read on the same day of each month.
