ABSTRACT:
A meter junction box for enabling the safe, accurate and efficient measuring of components of multi-phase electric power includes two separate spaced enclosure housings. The two housings are interconnected by a plurality of electrically conductive, non-magnetic conduits which are environmentally sealed at each end thereof in a manner to secure the interior of each housing from the adverse effects of the environment. A single, insulating jacketed electrical conductor passes through each of the respective conduits from one of the housings to the other. The individual conduits provide a means whereby a hook-on type ammeter may be functionally and individually connected with the conduits to measure the current in the conductor passing therethrough. The non-magnetic characteristics of the conduits enable accurate measurement of the current through the conductors without the adverse effects resulting from a ferrous or magnetic material interfering with the magnetic field generated by electrical current flowing through the conductors.
