摘要： A modular electricity meter configuration and corresponding methodology permits use of certain common components in combination with either a variety of mechanical displays or electronic displays. In electricity meter arrangements making use of printed circuit board or solid state technology, at least two separate electronics boards may be provided. One may constitute a standard board for basic metrology functions while the other may comprise selected implementation of various higher level functions for creating a custom design electricity meter to meet customer requirements. Different customers may be provided with differently outfitted meters by corresponding customization of the higher level function board. A unitary power supply may be provided for both boards through a fixed connector. A common baseplate includes a circuitry link through a nonremovable plug or clip for alternatively providing a tamper proof embodiment or one with exposed terminals for permitting customer testing. Physical stability and strength is provided by using tapered mounting posts and integrated snap fit arrangements without requiring any screws for assembly. A light pipe provides external output through an innercover to indicate correct meter operation. Meter data and other metered information may be output through different configurations optionally involving hardwired output, RF links, pulse outputs, and telephone connections via modem or wireless.
摘要翻译：模块化电表配置和相应的方法允许将某些常见组件与各种机械显示器或电子显示器组合使用。在使用印刷电路板或固态技术的电表中，可以提供至少两个单独的电子板。可以构成用于基本测量功能的标准板，而另一个可以包括用于创建定制设计电表以满足客户要求的各种更高级功能的选择实现。可以通过相应的上级功能板的定制，为不同的客户提供不同的装备的仪表。可以通过固定连接器为两个板提供单一电源。常见的基板包括通过不可移除的插头或夹子的电路链路，用于替代地提供防篡改的实施例或具有用于允许客户测试的暴露的端子。物理稳定性和强度通过使用锥形安装柱和集成的卡扣配合来提供，而不需要任何装配螺丝。光管通过内盖提供外部输出，以指示正确的仪表操作。仪表数据和其他计量信息可以通过不同配置输出，可选择地通过调制解调器或无线连接硬连线输出，RF链路，脉冲输出和电话连接。
