Small consumption connections can only be added through the dashboard. The EDSN requires a written agreement per connection added. Meterbeheer has developed the digital authorization for this purpose.
Digital authorization #
Meterbeheer’s Digital Authorization is generated and sent to connection owners in a fully automated manner. New connections are added via an Excel template. If the template includes multiple connections from one owner, the owner only needs to digitally sign one authorization.
After signing (via Zoho Sign), the authorization is automatically processed. The connection owner and Meterbeheer user will receive a copy of the authorization by email.
Excel template #
The Excel template allows bulk connections (gas or electricity) from multiple owners to be processed simultaneously. The following information should be entered per connections:
- Column A: Name of organization or resident(The signer of the energy contract).
- Column B: Address organization or resident.
- Column C: Zip code organization or resident.
- Column D: Place name organization or resident.
- Column E: Name of signed person (full name of signatory).
- Column F: E-mail address signed person (e-mail address of the signatory).
- Column G: Internal name feed (for your own use).
- Column H: Connection zip code (zip code of the connection whose measurement data you want to retrieve).
- Column I: House number connection (house number of the connection whose measurement data you want to retrieve).
- Column J: EAN code meter.
- Column K: Type of meter (electricity or gas; enter an E for electricity and a G for gas).
Organization or occupant means the organization or individual who has entered into an energy contract for the connection whose metering data is being requested.
Digital signing #
Once the Excel template is uploaded, Meterbeheer generates a digital authorization per owner that includes all of the owner’s connections. The owner will receive an email invitation to sign the authorization via Zoho Sign.
Measurement data available #
After signing, the authorization is processed and Meterbeheer begins retrieving the measurement data. The measurement data is available the next day.
Both the connection owner and the Meterbeheer user will receive a copy of the authorization by email.
Channels #
electricity
- 1.8.0 – Supply (consumption in kWh per 15 minutes).
- 2.8.0 – Feed-in (yield in kWh per 15 minutes).
Gas
- 1.8.0 – Supply (consumption in kWh per 15 minutes).
Historical dates #
From the grid operators, the following historical data is made available from the day the meter is registered:
- 10 days of quarterly consumption data (electricity) or hourly consumption data (gas).
- 40 days of daily consumption data.
- 13 months of monthly usage data.
The historical daily and monthly consumption data is settled in the JSON feeds over the quarter-hourly or hourly intervals so that the accrual is always the same.
Example
The historical daily consumption is 30 kWh. In this case, the JSON feed shows an electricity consumption of 30 / 96 = 0.3125 kWh per quarter-hour for all quarter-hour intervals for this day.
Monthly consumption is shown in a uniform manner for the entire month in question.
