A measuring circuit arrangement (1) for an electricity meter for direct connection is respectively connected, to an input (3) for voltage measurement and an input (4) for current measurement of a measuring chip (2) for each phase of a three phase supply. Upstream of the input (3) for voltage measurement is a voltage divider (R1,R2) provided in order to match the voltage level, and upstream of the input (4) for current measurement is a voltage transformer (5) with measuring shunt (RSH) installed according to the invention. The voltage transformer (5) is so arranged that its ohmic resistance towards the measuring shunt (RSH) on the one hand sufficiently limits standard direct-current impingement of the voltage transformer (5) and on the other hand this ohmic resistance is also small enough so that, together with the inductance of the current transformer (5), it displays no more than standard angle error.
Measuring circuit arrangement for electricity meters for direct connection with a first input for voltage measurement and a second input for current measurement, a voltage transformer being positioned upstream of the second input for current measurement between a measuring shunt and this second input for the purpose of galvanic isolation, characterized in that the voltage transformer to the measuring shunt has an ohmic resistance which on the one hand sufficiently limits any standard impingement of direct current on the voltage transformer and that on the other hand this ohmic resistance is small enough so that together with the inductance of the voltage transformer provides no more than standard angle error.
