Abstract
This paper studies the precise clock management technology for the power consumption information collection system which demands precise requirements of the electric power meter clock. The causes of the clock deviation of the collection system and the problems caused by the clock deviation are analysed first; Then the key technologies for achieving accurate time synchronization are explained; Next, the master station and terminal time synchronization algorithm is designed. Only two NLP synchronizations are required to obtain a high accuracy time deviation, and the accuracy of the algorithm is demonstrated through a test of an example. Finally, the electric power meter time adjustment scheme using a combination of broadcast time adjustment and ESAM point-to-point time adjustment is designed to achieve high accuracy and low error, which has high reliability and practicality.
