ABSTRACT:
A terminal for a watthour meter employs an offset portion internal to the watthour meter for disposing contacting surfaces for connection to current-coil conductors at four different transverse locations. Formation of the offset produces an under surface used as one element for capturing and applying compression force to a washer over a terminal gasket. A projection from the opposite surface of the terminal forms a bearing surface as the other element for applying compression force to the washer over the terminal gasket. Two holes, optionally tapped, are provided for connection of a voltage coil lead. One of the two holes remains free for connection even though the other may be covered by the current-coil conductor.
