Meter Panel
indoor enclosure with up to 4 panel meters
Don't operate your backup or alternative power electrical system blind!
Install and connect these economical panel meters so you can see what is happening.
Perfect for monitoring ac or dc system voltages, currents or frequency. If you have
electronic loads that are sensitive to voltage or frequency variations that occur with
small portable generators this is the solution. These meters are full rated devices
so no shunts or current transformers are required.
NEMA 1 enclosure is 8" x 8" x 4" deep, made of #16 gauge steel
and comes with 1/2", 3/4" and 1" knockouts. Hinged front cover is
supplied pre-punched for the number of meters you order. Enclosure is UL Listed and
CSA certified. For maximum meter life we do not recommend direct mounting of
enclosure on engine driven generators due to vibration. Mount separately on an
indoor wall.
Ammeters, voltmeters and/or frequency meter are available. Meters are
2-1/2" rectangular, 5% accuracy and fit into 2-1/16" diameter holes in front
cover. Note that frequency meters and two ranges of ac voltmeters come standard with
expanded scales for high resolution reading. Barrier type terminal block included for easier wiring. You must mount
and wire components. Depending on the type of wire, you must supply properly sized
cord grips or strain relief connectors.
All the following items are included so you don't have to go
searching for some of these hard-to-find items:
| - NEMA 1 enclosure with hinged door |
- 16 ga wire for volt & frequency
meters |
| - up to 4 panel meters |
- heavy-gauge extra flex wire for
ammeters |
| - mounting brackets for meters |
- ring-tongue terminals for meters &
block |
| - nuts & washers for meter studs |
- wire ties |
| - barrier terminal block |
- wiring diagram & instructions |
Following meters are available and can be ordered using drop-down menus
below. Some other ranges are available as special order at added cost.

Shopping cart will apply price adder (listed in drop-down menu below) for
frequency meters, ac current transformers and hour meters which cost more than other meters.
Direct connected meters for 50 amps require a high capacity terminal block at slightly higher
cost. If you order
less than 4 meters price will automatically be reduced.
NOTE that use of ammeters for reading values less than 25% of
full scale not recommended.
