Abstract: A combination meter, meter box and frangible seal for deterring unauthorized access to the meter and visually indicating, when the seal is broken, at least an unauthorized attempt has been made to access the meter.

Abstract: A transformer having diagonally disposed high voltage bushings and core assembly provides a transformer of smaller size than other transformers of a given voltage rating, and a transformer capable of being installed adjacent other transformers of the same construction in a minimum amount of space while maintaining a minimum permissible clearance between the bushing conductors of adjacent transformers.

Abstract: A dry-type instrument transformer having a potential tap in the form of a well molded into the body of the transformer. A female conductor terminal is provided inside the well connected to the high voltage winding of the transformer. A connector in the form of an elbow module fits within the well and has a male conductor member which mates with the female member. A ground coating is provided on the exterior surface of the transformer and is in conductive relation to a ground coating on the elbow module. A metering system having a potential transformer and a current transformer each with a potential tap and connected together by a pair of interconnected elbow modules.

Abstract: End caps for the primary winding of an instrument transformer have a radius to relieve the electrical stress at the sharp edges of the primary. The end caps are provided with recesses to receive the primary leads and also have other recesses for locating the primary in a mold for encapsulating the instrument transformer. Lugs or tongues are provided at the inner edge of the end caps to support the winding during molding. Prior to molding, a conducting tape is attached to one primary lead and wound around the end caps.
