[0002] An energy meter box, also known as an electricity meter box or an electric meter box, is a special box used to install and protect energy metering equipment. It plays a key role in the power supply system and is usually installed in residential areas, commercial buildings or industrial sites. Its main function is to measure the amount of electricity consumed by users and provide data to power companies for electricity bill calculation and power management.

[0003] Chinese invention patent CN116565719B discloses a corrosion-resistant electric energy meter box. When the door of the meter box is opened, its limit assembly releases the restriction on the slide plate, so that the door can be opened. At the same time, the moving assembly drives the slide plate to move in the slide groove, and the dustproof net is cleaned by the cleaning assembly, so as to clean the dust inside the electric energy meter box; Chinese invention patent CN115085058B discloses an active heat dissipation electric energy meter box with a high temperature alarm function. During the entire active heat dissipation process, the meter box simultaneously performs heat dissipation treatment on the inside of the box body through a variety of heat dissipation treatment methods, and can timely discharge the heat generated inside the electric energy meter box, which is convenient for the electric energy meter box heat dissipation protection; although both have their own unique advantages, there are still shortcomings. Both only use conventional locks on the box door to provide safety protection for the entire electricity meter box. In the actual power maintenance or inspection process, after completing the necessary maintenance work, the maintenance personnel may forget to re-lock the door of the electricity meter box due to negligence or busyness, leaving the electricity metering equipment exposed to the outside, making it more susceptible to erosion by rain and dust, resulting in accelerated aging of the equipment and weakened performance. It may also be subject to malicious damage or theft.
