InstanceSet

1

InstanceSet

Dataset containing the data objects.

EndDeviceFunction

0..1

EndDeviceFunction

End device function metering quantities displayed by this register.

Usage Point

0..1

UsagePoint

Usage Point, when metered, has these registers.

isVirtual

0..1

boolean

If true, the data it produces is calculated or measured by a device other than a physical end device/meter. Otherwise, any data streams it produces are measured by the hardware of the end device/meter itself.

leftDigitCount

0..1

integer

Number of digits (dials on a mechanical meter) to the left of the decimal place; default is normally 5.

rightDigitCount

0..1

integer

Number of digits (dials on a mechanical meter) to the right of the decimal place.

touTier

0..1

TimeInterval

Clock time interval for register to beging/cease accumulating time of usage (e.g., start at 8:00 am, stop at 5:00 pm).

touTierName

0..1

string

Name used for the time of use tier (also known as bin or bucket). For example, "peak", "off-peak", "TOU Category A", etc.

Channels

Channel

All channels that collect/report values from this register.

PropertiesCIMDataObject

0..1

ChangeSetMember

The single CIM data object in the appropriate dataset context.

aliasName

0..1

string

The aliasName is free text human readable name of the object alternative to IdentifiedObject.name. It may be non unique and may not correlate to a naming hierarchy. The attribute aliasName is retained because of backwards compatibility between CIM relases. It is however recommended to replace aliasName with the Name class as aliasName is planned for retirement at a future time.

description

0..1

string

The description is a free human readable text describing or naming the object. It may be non unique and may not correlate to a naming hierarchy.

mRID

0..1

string

Master resource identifier issued by a model authority. The mRID is unique within an exchange context. Global uniqueness is easily achieved by using a UUID, as specified in RFC 4122, for the mRID. The use of UUID is strongly recommended. For CIMXML data files in RDF syntax conforming to IEC 61970-552, the mRID is mapped to rdf:ID or rdf:about attributes that identify CIM object elements.

name

0..1

string

The name is any free human readable and possibly non unique text naming the object.

DiagramObjects

0..*

DiagramObject

The diagram objects that are associated with the domain object.

Names

0..*

Name

All names of this identified object.
