Systems and methods to detect Automatic Lateral Switch operations. Power down reports indicating power went down at a subset of reporting power meters during a time duration is received, at a monitoring facility. The plurality of reporting power meters receive power from a lateral power feed receiving power through an Automatic Lateral Switch. A respective power restore report indicating power is restored at the respective reporting power meter is received within a recovery time duration after receiving each respective power down report. Based on receiving the respective power restore report within the recovery time duration, an occurrence of an Automatic Lateral Switch operation which includes operating contacts providing power to the lateral power feed by the contacts opening and remaining reclosed is determined.
