Overview of the latest technological and market trends on the topic of Smart Grids in the European Union. The intelligent electricity network, also known as the smart grid, serves as the foundation for every smart city by accomplishing the following key functions: Informing "Prosumers": The smart grid provides valuable information to "prosumers," individuals or entities that both consume and produce. Smart grids are energy networks that can automatically monitor energy flows and adjust to changes in energy supply and demand accordingly. What's new in power grids? Discover the story of Sweden's leading energy distributor, E. ON, as it achieves enhanced sustainability and reliability to enable the energy of the future. The analysis focuses on two specific enabling technologies, which have exhibited significant developments in the last year: High Voltage Direct-Current (HVDC) connections and Smart Metering.

Standard IP testing is performed using fresh water; protection against other fluids, such as salt water, oils, or solvents, is not guaranteed by the rating and requires specific chemical resistance testing. The IP code or Ingress Protection code indicates how well a device is protected against water and dust. In the original IEC 60529 standard from year 1976, the letters IP are used without providing an explanation, and referred as "characteristic letters". 40050-9 extended the newer IEC 60529 rating system with an IP69K rating for high-pressure, high-temperature wash-down applications.
