The widespread and availability of electrical network, attracts the attention of engineers to use this vast network as communication media to transmit and receive data over 50 Hz or 60Hz power line, this technology is known Power Line Communications. This technology enables the two-ways communications which will helps in effective monitoring and controlling of grid resources makes our electrical gird into smart electrical grid. This paper reports the performance of Power Line Communications under various conditions such as type of electrical and electronics appliances, distance between PLC transmitter and receiver, distance from appliance to PLC receiver, frequency of operation etc. Experimental setup is made using server-client communication where DLMS Energy meter simulator acts as client and DLMS Explorer as server.
