ABSTRACT:
A protector formed of a suitable dielectric material is adapted to be inserted into an electrical utility meter box socket. The protector is provided to insulate energized terminals in the meter box from each other and from any ground potential. The protector serves as a temporary insulative barrier greatly reducing the risk of injury to service crew members taking voltage readings or verifying phase rotation.
