摘要： In a data transmission system for a pipeline which is electrically conductive at least in sections, the pipeline itself forms a data line. For this purpose, a coupling element is present for the modulation of electrical signals onto a potential of the pipeline. A cost-effective data transmission system is created which can be used in remote regions.

摘要： The invention relates to a method and a device for measuring a gas consumption by means of a gas meter. A gas meter with thermal mass flow sensor for determining mass flow signals (SM) and with a calibration as energy meter for outputting energy value signals (SE) is known. According to the invention, a gas type is determined by the gas meter insofar as combustible and non-combustible gas mixtures are differentiated. The gas meter is operated, in the case of a non-combustible gas mixture, with calibration in mass or standard volume units (l/min) and, in the case of a combustible gas mixture, with calibration in energy units (kWh). Embodiments concern inter alia: measurement of a gas parameter (λ, α, c, η) of the gas or determining the gas type; gas quality sensor with an identical construction to thermal flow sensor; measuring intervals lengthened in the case of non-combustible gas and shortened in the case of combustible gas. Advantages are inter alia: reliable energy measurement because of automatic differentiation between non-meterable gas and high-quality useful gas; detection of manipulation attempts; and automatic heat value tracking even without heat value measurement.

摘要： Described is a method and a device for more accurate measurement of a gas supply with a gas meter. A consumption-weighted correction factor is determined by weight averaging of a sensor error factor of the gas meter with a consumption profile characteristic of the gas supply location and the measuring signal is converted using the correction factor. Embodiments relate inter alia to: operation of the gas meter as volume, mass or energy meter; formulae for determining the correction factor with sensor error factors and consumption profiles relative to volume, mass or energy; and measuring signal correction in the case of a non-registering or registering gas meter. Advantages are inter alia: subsequent customer-specific measuring signal correction; no additional measuring complexity; and improved measuring accuracy, in particular improved energy measurement by means of compensation for inherent deviations of the energy signal in the vase of heat value variations.

摘要： An apparatus for the detection of a current in a protection and metering current range comprises one current sensor, which generates a voltage signal, and a voltage-limited electronic element. For metering voltage signals exceeding the upper metering voltage limit of the electronic element or for protection voltage signals exceeding the upper protection voltage limit of the electronic element an attenuation element with an attenuation factor being larger than unity is electrically connected to the current sensor. The attenuation factor is chosen in such a way that the metering voltage signal divided by the attenuation factor is smaller than or equal to the upper electronic element metering voltage limit or the protection voltage signal divided by the attenuation factor is smaller than or equal to the upper electronic element protection voltage limit.
