Export Issues
The PPU software uses Secure Socket Layer (SSL) to encrypt data transmitted between:
•The PPU system and the utility meter
•The utility meter and HP
Because SSL uses 128 bit encryption, the PPU software cannot be exported to certain countries, as outlined by the Bureau of Industry and Security, in the U.S. Department of Commerce.
The distribution channels for acquiring the PPU software comply with these export limitations.
