Abstract
A system for detecting power status changes, such as power outages or power restorations, at a multi-meter node associated with a power distribution network is provided. For example, a multi-meter node associated with a power distribution network can be configured to detect the power status change event occurred at the node, such as a power outage event or a power restoration event. Based on the type of the event, the communication module of the multi-meter node identifies meters contained in the multi-meter node that are impacted by the event, such as meters that become unpowered due to a power outage event or meters that become powered due to a power restoration event. The communication module generates a consolidated power status change message for the impacted meters and transmits the message to a headend system over a mesh network.
