Abstract

See full text

An arrangement for use in a utility meter includes at least one circuit path, a three phase service switch, and a three phase monitoring unit. The at least one circuit path operably couples a source of electrical energy to a load. The service switch is operably coupled to the at least one circuit path and is configurable in an open state and a closed state. The monitoring unit is operably coupled to the at least one circuit path between the load and the service switch and is configured to detect a presence and an absence of line voltage on the load. The monitoring unit is further configured (i) to generate an open circuit signal responsive to the detection of the absence of line voltage on the load, and (ii) to generate a closed circuit signal responsive to the detection of the presence of line voltage on the load.
