ABSTRACT:
An adapter provides full single phase electrical service when there is a partial electrical service failure to one of the line contacts of the watt-hour meter socket. The adapter includes a housing, wherein at least two line apertures are formed through the housing. A line electrical conductor is removably inserted through one of the line apertures to correspond to the live line contact of the meter socket. The line electrical conductor has a first end configured for being connected to the line contact of the watt-hour meter socket and a second end configured for being connected of contact of the watt-hour meter. At least two load apertures are formed through the housing. At least two load electrical conductors are each inserted through the load apertures. Each of the two load electrical conductors have a first end configured for being connected to a respective load contact of the watt-hour meter socket, and each of the two load electrical conductors have a second end configured for being connected to the watt-hour meter. A connector element connects the load electrical conductors to one another. When the watt-hour meter and the watt-hour meter socket are electrically connected with the adapter, energy consumption is measured by the watt-hour meter.
