Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of electric power equipment, and in particular to an outdoor electric energy metering box. Background Art

[0002] The electric energy meter box is the shell for installing the electric energy meter, which is commonly found in residential, commercial buildings, industrial plants and other places. It is not only the carrier for the installation of the electric meter, but also an important device for protecting the electric meter and its surrounding environment.

[0003] In the related technology, the electric energy meter box is mainly composed of a box body and a door. The door is connected to the box body by a hinge, and the other side is connected to the box body by a lock structure to achieve a detachable connection, which is convenient for daily operation and maintenance. At the same time, the door is equipped with an observation window to facilitate intuitive observation of the conditions inside the box. The box body and the door are made of various materials, and metals or non-metals such as resin-based composite materials, polycarbonate (PC) and ABS engineering plastics are common choices. As the core component of the electric energy meter box, the electric energy meter is firmly installed on the inner wall of the box by screws, accurately measuring and monitoring power consumption, and providing important data support for power management.

[0004] However, when the power meter box is used in areas with strong winds and sand, such as the northwest, its operating environment faces severe challenges. Dust particles may not only continuously erode the surface of the power meter box, causing the coating to wear or the metal parts to rust, but long-term dust erosion may also damage the sealing performance of the power meter box (entering through the connection between the box body and the door). Once the seal fails, dust may enter the box, directly damaging the internal meter and circuit, and even affecting the normal supply of electricity and the accuracy of metering. There is room for improvement. Summary of the invention
