ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for attachment to watt-hour meter apparatus of the type commonly used to measure electrical power consumption, to prevent from being misinstalled so as to run the meter backwards. A first obstruction member or members are provided within the box which receives the watt-hour meter, and a second obstruction member is secured to the meter. These obstructions are asymmetrically disposed with respect to mating electrical contacts on the meter and within the meter box, so that the obstructions on the meter and in the meter box confront one another and prevent the meter from being installed in an inverted position which causes the meter to run backwards.
