Stratus® Electricity Meter Data Sheet

Stratus® Electricity Meter

Stratus® Electricity Meter

Intelligence at the Edge

Sensus has developed the first residential electricity meter in the Stratus family of meters. The new Stratus meter will be available in form 2S Remote Disconnect and is UL 2735 listed.

The Stratus delivers intelligence at the edge technology providing electric utilities, municipalities and cooperatives with increased energy efficiency, enhanced safety standards, faster restoration of service and opt-in capabilities. Combined with the Sensus FlexNet® communication network, Stratus is a quantum leap forward in smart city and smart grid enablement.
