Abstract
A three-phase selection energy meter is disclosed. In one embodiment, an energy meter includes a base; a phase A terminal barrel, a phase B terminal barrel and a phase C terminal barrel; and a phase selection member movably engaged with the base, the phase selection member permitting individual selection of each of the phase A terminal barrel, the phase B terminal barrel and the phase C terminal barrel, wherein the individual selection of the one of the phase A terminal barrel, the phase B terminal barrel or the phase C terminal barrel prohibits selection of the other two of the phase A terminal barrel, the phase B terminal barrel and the phase C terminal barrel.
Claims18
A three-phase selectable energy meter comprising:
- a base;
- a phase A terminal barrel, a phase B terminal barrel and a phase C terminal barrel;
- and
- a phase selection member movably engaged with the base, the phase selection member permitting individual selection of each of the phase A terminal barrel, the phase B terminal barrel and the phase C terminal barrel, wherein the individual selection of the one of the phase A terminal barrel, the phase B terminal barrel or the phase C terminal barrel prohibits selection of the other two of the phase A terminal barrel, the phase B terminal barrel and the phase C terminal barrel.
A three-phase selectable energy meter comprising:
- a base housing a phase A terminal barrel, a phase B terminal barrel and a phase C terminal barrel;
- a phase selection member movably engaged with the base, the phase selection member permitting individual selection of each of the phase A terminal barrel, the phase B terminal barrel and the phase C terminal barrel, wherein the individual selection of the one of the phase A terminal barrel, the phase B terminal barrel or the phase C terminal barrel prohibits selection of the other two of the phase A terminal barrel, the phase B terminal barrel and the phase C terminal barrel;
- and
- an actuation member engaged with the phase selection member and only one of the phase A terminal barrel, the phase B terminal barrel and the phase C terminal barrel.
A three-phase selectable energy meter comprising:
- a base housing:
- a phase A terminal barrel, a phase B terminal barrel and a phase C terminal barrel;
- and
- a relay;
- and
- a phase selection member including a connecting strip electrically connected to the relay, the phase selection member being movably engaged with the base and permitting individual selection of each of the phase A terminal barrel, the phase B terminal barrel and the phase C terminal barrel, wherein the individual selection of the one of the phase A terminal barrel, the phase B terminal barrel or the phase C terminal barrel prohibits selection of the other two of the phase A terminal barrel, the phase B terminal barrel and the phase C terminal barrel.
