La présente invention concerne un système de lecture à distance de compteur électrique basse puissance dans lequel un dispositif de lecture connecté à un compteur électrique de manière filaire stocke des informations de quantité d'énergie électrique pour le compteur électrique selon un protocole de communication COSEM à intervalles prédéfinis et, si un terminal d'utilisateur demande des informations de lecture pour des périodes de lecture correspondant aux intervalles, alors les informations de lecture peuvent être générées et fournies sans suivre le protocole de communication COSEM.
