AI Technical Summary
There is a lack of correlation between the upper cover and the lower cover of the existing three-phase and four-wire power meter case, and users or outsiders can easily open it, resulting in poor protection of the power meter and poses safety hazards.
A three-phase four-wire power meter case including an upper cover of the power meter, a base of the power meter and a lower cover assembly is designed. The lower cover assembly of the power meter includes a locking tongue, a locking spring and an unlocking lever. Through the design of these components, the connection tightness and linkage between the upper cover and the lower cover of the power meter is realized. The hidden unlocking lever setting makes it difficult to open the upper cover and the lower cover of the power meter easily.
Through the design of the locking tongue and unlocking lever, the connection tightness and linkage between the upper and lower covers of the power meter are improved, preventing users from easily opening the power meter, thereby significantly improving the safety and protection performance of the power meter.
