[0013] In this technical solution, it is defined that each cover plate includes two plug-in parts. Specifically, the number of first slots is two, and the two first slots are respectively located on both sides of the width direction of the enclosure. Since the two plug-in parts of one of the cover plates are respectively inserted into the two first slots, that is, the two plug-in parts are distributed along the width direction of the enclosure, that is, one of the cover plates is inserted into the first slots on both sides in the width direction, thereby realizing the assembly of the cover plate.

Specifically, the third folded edge and the mounting portion are respectively located on opposite sides of the enclosure, and the third folded edge is connected to the enclosure. That is, on the opposite sides of the enclosure, one end is connected by inserting the mounting portion into the mounting groove, and the other end is connected to the enclosure through the third folded edge, which is beneficial to improving the connection strength between the cover plate and the enclosure, ensuring the overall installation stability and reliability of the chassis, and achieving a dust-proof effect.
[0027] Optionally, the third folded edge is connected to the enclosure plate by screws.
[0028] Optionally, a portion of the cover is bent to form a third folded edge, which helps to reduce the manufacturing difficulty of the cover, further reduce the number of components of the chassis, improve the convenience of disassembly and assembly of the chassis, and facilitate the later maintenance of the electricity meter.
[0029] Optionally, a portion of the cover plate is bent to form the mounting portion.
[0030] In some technical solutions, optionally, at least one cover plate further includes a groove, and the mounting portion is disposed in the groove.
[0031] In this technical solution, it is defined that at least one cover plate also includes a groove. Specifically, the mounting portion is arranged in the groove.

[0086] Optionally, a portion of the cover 120 is bent to form a third fold 126, which helps to reduce the manufacturing difficulty of the cover 120, further reduce the number of parts of the chassis 100, improve the convenience of disassembly and assembly of the chassis 100, and facilitate the subsequent maintenance of the electricity meter.
[0087] Optionally, a portion of the cover plate 120 is bent to form the mounting portion 125 .
[0088] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, at least one cover plate 120 further includes a groove 124 , and the mounting portion 125 is disposed in the groove 124 .
[0089] In this embodiment, it is defined that at least one cover plate 120 also includes a groove 124. Specifically, the mounting portion 125 is arranged in the groove 124. When the mounting portion 125 is inserted into the mounting groove 111, an avoidance is formed by the groove 124 to avoid the formation of a gap at the connection between the cover plate 120 and the enclosure 110, thereby affecting the reliability and aesthetics of the internal electrical components.
[0090] In some embodiments, optionally, the enclosure plate 110 is an aluminum plate; and / or at least one cover plate 120 is an aluminum plate.

Alternatively, the enclosure 110 and at least one cover plate 120 are both aluminum plates. Alternatively, both cover plates 120 are aluminum plates. Alternatively, the enclosure 110 and both cover plates 120 are aluminum plates. These are not listed here. Specific configurations can be made based on actual needs.
[0092] It is understandable that the aluminum plate is light in weight, which can help reduce the overall weight of the chassis 100 while ensuring the overall structural strength of the chassis 100, making it easier to install and maintain.
[0093] Furthermore, the electrical components of the energy meter are located within the accommodating cavity 130. During operation, these components generate heat. Since at least one of the enclosure 110 and the cover 120 is made of aluminum, the heat dissipation of the energy meter having the chassis 100 during operation can be significantly improved, thereby extending the service life of the energy meter and improving its reliability.
