EN 50470-1:2006

Applies to newly manufactured watt-hour meters, measuring active electrical energy, intended for residential, commercial and light industrial use, for use on 50 Hz electrical networks. It specifies general requirements and type tests methods. It applies to electromechanical or static watt-hour meters for indoor and outdoor application, consisting of a measuring element and register(s) enclosed in a meter case. It also applies to operation indicator(s) and test output(s). If the meter has (a) measuring element(s) for more than one type of energy (multi-energy meters), or when other functional elements, like maximum demand indicators, electronic tariff registers, time switches, ripple control receivers, data communication interfaces, etc. are enclosed in the meter case (multi-function meters) then this standard applies only for the active energy metering part.
