Meter Groups
Meters are grouped for the purposes of sharing a common communications module. A meter may only belong to, at most, one meter group at a time. Meter groups cannot be nested within another meter group.
Meters with in-built communications do not need to belong to a group.
Groups are set up at meter provisioning time.

Navigating to a meter group's communications module
Meters in close proximity to one another are often grouped together to share a ccommuncation module. Often it is more cost effective to communicate with devices that share a comm module rather rather than have dedicated comms per device.
