8.6. Communication management
In accordance with IEC 62056-53, security access levels of the DLMS/COSEM protocol are applied to meter
communication and interfacing.
Confidentiality and privacy of data are managed by COSEM logical devices in the meter (which can be
addressed individually) and different COSEM client identifications (connection profiles).
Each connection profile is protected by a dedicated password and all connection attempts by COSEM clients are
checked by the meter before establishing a connection.
The meter has three logical devices:
Electricity
Management

Several client identifications are predetermined, with different authorisations to access data:
