Meter Point Administration System
Each DNO operates a Meter Point Administration System (MPAS) which holds the following information for each MPAN:
- Supplier
- Data Collector (DC)
- Data Aggregator (DA)
- Meter Operator (MOP)
- Customer
- Address of the exit point
- Associated MPANs
- MPAN state
- Profile Class (PC)
- Line Loss Factor Class (LLFC)
- Meter Time Switch Class (MTC)
- GSP Group
MPRS is the name of the software package that implements the MPAS system for all DNOs. Since MPRS is used by most DNOs it is often used interchangeably with the term MPAS.

Famous quotes containing the words meter, point and/or system:
“Much poetry seems to be aware of its situation in time and of its relation to the metronome, the clock, and the calendar. ... The season or month is there to be felt; the day is there to be seized. Poems beginning “When” are much more numerous than those beginning “Where” of “If.” As the meter is running, the recurrent message tapped out by the passing of measured time is mortality.”
—William Harmon (b. 1938)
“In philosophical inquiry, the human spirit, imitating the movement of the stars, must follow a curve which brings it back to its point of departure. To conclude is to close a circle.”
—Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
“UG [universal grammar] may be regarded as a characterization of the genetically determined language faculty. One may think of this faculty as a ‘language acquisition device,’ an innate component of the human mind that yields a particular language through interaction with present experience, a device that converts experience into a system of knowledge attained: knowledge of one or another language.”
—Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)
