NMi’s Gaming Division – the market leading compliance testing and auditing laboratory in the field of gaming and IT security, announced today that they will be exhibiting for the first time at Entertainment Arena Expo (EAE) in Romania from the 5th – 7th September 2016.  This announcement follows NMi becoming the first accredited lab in Romania when the ONJN (Oficiul National pentru Jocuri de Noroc) awarded Class 2 licences in April 2016, having already been active in the Romanian market conducting database audits for the ministry since 2014.

In booth #318 at EAE, NMi’s expert team will be on hand to discuss compliance testing requirements and the regulatory framework for operators and suppliers entering the Romanian market.

NMi’s Director, Andrew Rosewarne said: “NMi supports its customers where ever they want to go in the world, and we were delighted to have been the first lab into Romania. So the step we are taking this year to exhibit at the Entertainment Expo gives our customers, and those looking for support entering the Romanian market, the ideal opportunity to speak to the NMi team and establish a partnership that will not only serve their needs in Romania but within Eastern Europe and across the world.

Our team at the Expo understand the complex requirements of the Romanian security audits and will discuss how NMi approach the specifics of Social Engineering. For us it’s about being where our customers need us to be, whether that’s in a new jurisdiction that they want to enter or indeed being present at the shows that matter to them”.

NMi’s Business Development Manager, Julian Borg-Barthet added: “NMi are excited to work in Romania and to exhibit at the Entertainment Expo – our customers know that we have the experience of a highly-qualified team, the flexibility of approach that meets our customer’s needs, and the capacity to meet the highly regulated requirements of the Romanian market. Increasing our attendance at shows in Eastern Europe gives us the ideal opportunity to meet with our customers and the people that are shaping these markets and discuss in person, not only how we operate in highly regulated jurisdictions, such as Romania; but our approach to customer service within online games testing, land-based games testing, lottery certification, and security audits – along with our breadth of worldwide coverage that NMi provide”.

NMi SMDA test facility Southampton live!!

Published

on

NMi has opened a new SMDA test facility in Southampton for interoperability and interchangeability testing, which is live since the 4th of August 2017!

Smart metering systems are being installed in around 26 million homes and small businesses in Great Britain. Correctly performing and secure smart meters and devices will ensure that smart metering benefits are delivered to energy consumers, energy suppliers and other industry parties. Assurance that smart metering devices will meet requirements and can be exchanged without impact to other devices will provide confidence and eliminate avoidable costs.

SMDA scheme
Energy suppliers in liaison with other key players decided that specific Smart Meter Device Assurance (SMDA) scheme was needed to deliver the necessary confidence to consumers, suppliers and financiers that smart metering devices in homes and small businesses will work properly. In January 2015, Gemserv was appointed as the SMDA Scheme Operator by the SMDA Company (SMDA Co) to take the main task of setting up the assurance testing scheme.

One of the key aspects of the SMDA scheme was to have an independent test house that conducts testing of the devices. NMi was selected to take this forward as the official SMDA Test House at the end of last year. This was an important step towards supporting the smart metering rollout in Great Britain.

A new dedicated SMDA laboratory in Southampton that offers all necessary testing services for smart metering devices was opened by NMi. Since the 4th of August 2017 this laboratory is live. Manufacturers of smart gas and electricity meters and other devices, such as In-Home Displays (IHDs) and Pre-Payment Interface Devices (PPMIDs), can have their products tested in this laboratory against a set of test specifications developed by the SMDA Scheme Operator in consultation with the scheme members. When after testing a smart metering device is found to meet the SMDA test specifications, that design will be awarded the SMDA assurance mark and registered in the Device Assurance Register (DAR).

SMDA testing
The SMDA testing consists mainly of two items:

  • interoperability testing, to demonstrate that smart meters are able to communicate properly with the Data Communications Company (DCC) systems; and
  • interchangeability testing, to check that all devices connected to any individual Home Area Network (HAN), such as meters, IHDs, PPMIDs or HAN Connected Auxiliary Load Switches (HCALCs) can communicate and operate with each other correctly, irrespective of the device manufacturer.

Henri Schouten, Business Development Manager Utilities at NMi explains: “We are proud to be selected SMDA Test House and offer those services to support the Smart Metering rollout in Great Britain. In our Southampton lab the smart metering devices will be tested and examined using all necessary Wide Area Network (WAN) and HAN communication technologies and applications. We have also prepared specific equipment for electricity meters to perform the interoperability and interchangeability testing to simulate real life operation using actual electrical load where required. Furthermore, for gas meters a specific rack is installed, producing air flow that will also simulate real life conditions during testing.
