As the go have installed digital single phase two wire Ac energy meters (mounted type ) in the valley with the specification: Type Reference Voltage Reference Frequency Starting current Display Operating temp. Enclosure Overload Capacity Power consumption LEDs / LCD Icons SPEM 01 240V 50 Hz 0.4% of basic current. Electromechanical Counter with one decimal.
The digit wheels are made of Delerine. -10ºC to 60ºC Sheet Steel Body / Polycarbonate Body 400% & 600% of basic current Less than 1.0 watt. Four LEDs / LCD Icons provided on front Window for following indications: Meter Calibration, Reverse Indication, Phase Available Indication & Earth Tamper Indication It is easy to tamper the meter with out even touching it, what subscribers have to do is simple...
Their are two wires coming into the meter one is neutral and other is phase ( single phase). as most of the house holds in valley dont have third connection i.e (GROUND, GREEN color wire) so we have still two out puts on the meter which connects our load to the meter. this means in an non- grounded (earth) house the meter if not given neutral as the input will shut down, also when the power is shut from the distribution transformer the meter does not have any inbuilt power which can turn it on (thus a flaw). using this simple procedure we can tamper the meter with out breaking it’s seal. thus what we have to do is:::
- check which one is the neutral line .
- cut the neutral line in ur home at any place..
- now in the out put terminal of the energy meter connect it to the earth line.. .
- but u should know about earthing first.. plate earthing or pipe earthing..
- now you are left with only one in coming wire to your home that is the phase..
- but you also have an another line that's earth line..
- in fact we can use earth line for neutral line to make the energy meter slower..
- If your home is already grounded then you have to plug off that ground connection.. u can use that connection for neutral also..
thank you
