I0216 – REC Changes to tie in with DCP419

Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) are currently receiving unnecessary Power Outage Event Alerts (AD1) from Smart Meters during planned works or Communications Hub replacements. This issue is anticipated to escalate with the 2G to 4G Communications Hub replacement project in 2025. To address this, DCP419 proposes that all parties working on Smart Meters or Communications Hubs must notify the DNO in advance, thereby eliminating the need for DNOs to contact consumers unnecessarily.
