Claim 8:
9. The method of claim 1, wherein associating the meter to the transformer additionally comprises:
obtaining a value of DCR according to DCR=ln[Dref/D], wherein: Dref=(D1+D2)/2, and wherein D1 is a distance between the meter and a first transformer and D2 is a distance between the meter and a second transformer; and
basing a likelihood that the meter is connected to a particular transformer at least in part on VCCR and DCR, wherein the likelihood=ln[0.5/(1+e{circumflex over ( )}0.36/(DCR{circumflex over ( )}1.71*VCCR{circumflex over ( )}1.29))+0.5/(1+e{circumflex over ( )}0.6/VCCR{circumflex over ( )}6)];
wherein associating the meter to the transformer is based at least in part on the VCCR and based at least in part on the DCR.
