ABSTRACT:
An electronic type electric energy meter comprising an analog adder and an analog subtracter by which signals proportional to a voltage and a current of a circuit to-be-measured are respectively added and subtracter therebetween, A/D converters which convert outputs of the analog adder and the analog subtracter into digital values, and an arithmetic control unit by which the digital values from the A/D converters corresponding to the analog addition value and subtraction value are respectively squared so as to obtain a difference of the squared values, and the difference is accumulated thereby to measure electric energy. The values of the input analog voltages of the A/D converters vary in only narrow ranges, so that the electric energy can be calculated at high precision in a wide current variation range by means of the A/D converters having small numbers of bits.
