Original Abstract

This paper presents the design and development of a~smart meter emulator based on the DLMS standard, specifically designed for performance, security, and processing testing of new Head-End Systems (HES) as part of Automated Meter Management. A HES systems are used by utility companies to periodically read data from large numbers of smart electricity meters. The emulator supports the simulation of hundreds of thousands of meters, enabling comprehensive evaluation of the HES's ability to handle high volumes of data, assess security vulnerabilities, and ensure overall system performance. Additionally, the emulator can be employed for training purposes, providing an effective tool for both system testing and personnel education in utility and educational environments.
