Slim - Line Din Rail Kwh Meter Tariff Charge Prepaid Electricity Meters

The CA168-S  is a single-phase 60A (80A optional) approved split meter in a DIN rail-mount housing. Ideal for new reticulation where housing is informal and the prepayment meters are mounted in a pole-top enclosure with respective customer interface units conveniently mounted in the dwellings below. Due to the small size and DIN rail housing, multiple Power-Rail meters can be mounted in a small enclosure thereby making installation cost effective.It is ideal for installation in Granny Flats, Individual Rented Units, Shops, Stores and Sporting Facilities. 

 The meter consists of two parts: the Customer Interface Unit(CIU) and the Meter. The Customer Interface Unit is a compact unit with user-friendly display and keypad that can be installed in any convenient location inside the consumer’s premises. Connection to the remotely installed meter is via a pair of communications wires. The meter contains all critical metering, number decryption and load control functionality. It operates independently of the customer interface unit and is immune to any form of tampering on the customer interface.

The meter is usually installed in a secure, locked enclosure - typically a pavement kiosk or pole-mounted equivalent. It is outside the consumer’s premises to facilitate easy inspection by the utility at any time, thus reducing the possibility of tampering.
