Calinmeter - Three Phase Prepaid Electricity Meters
A CA368 and a customer interface unit (CIU) together makes the CA368-S, a four-wire, 100 Amp per phase,split type keypad based prepayment meter. The meter is finished in a compact BS footprint enclosure. It is ideal for residential homes, commercial and light industrial applications. The CIU is installed within customer`s premise and the main meter is usually locked away from consumers` premise in a kiosk, cabinet or meter box on the pavement or mounted on the pole.
