This European Standard applies to newly manufactured electromechanical watt-hour meters intended for residential, commercial and light industrial use, of class indexes A and B, for the measurement of alternating current electrical active energy in 50 Hz networks. It specifies particular requirements and type test methods. It applies to electromechanical watt-hour meters for indoor and outdoor application, consisting of a measuring element and register(s) enclosed together in a meter case. It also applies to operation indicator(s) and test output(s). If the meter has (a) measuring element(s) for more than one type of energy (multi-energy meters), or when other functional elements, like maximum demand indicators, electronic tariff registers, time switches, ripple control receivers, data communication interfaces etc. are enclosed in the meter case (multi-function meters) then this standard applies only for the active energy metering part. This standard distinguishes between: -meters of class indexes A and B; -direct connected and transformer operated meters;;meters for use in networks equipped with or without earth fault neutralizers. It does not apply to: -watt-hour meters where the voltage across the connection terminals exceeds 600 V (line-to-line voltage for meters for polyphase systems); -portable meters. Methods for acceptance testing are covered by the IEC 62058 series of standards. The dependability aspect is covered by the documents of the IEC 62059 series.

meters having separate current and voltage windings.
b
Circuits, which have been subjected to tests in part A) Items a) and b) are not subjected to the test in Item d). When the
voltage circuits of a polyphase meter have a common point in normal service, this common point shall be maintained for the
test and, in this case, all the circuits of the driving elements are subjected to a single test.
c
It is not, strictly speaking, a dielectric strength test, but a means of verifying that the insulation distances are sufficient when
the connecting device is open.
d
The test on part D item c) is not necessary, if the visual inspection for compliance with the conditions of EN50470-1
subclause 5.7 leaves no doubt.

The difference between the percentage error when the meter is carrying a single-phase load and a
balanced polyphase load at I and unity power factor shall not exceed 2,5 % and 1,5 % for meters of
ref
class indexes A and B respectively.
8.2 Repeatability
The application of the same measurand under the same conditions of measurement shall result in the
close agreement of successive measurements. The repeatability at any test point given in Table 13
th
shall be better than 1/10 of the limit of percentage error at reference conditions. The manufacturer
shall state the necessary number of revolutions.
8.3 Limits of additional percentage error due to influence quantities
When the current and the power factor are held constant at a point within their respective specified
measuring ranges, and any single influence quantity is taken from its reference value and varied within
its specified operating range, with the meter otherwise operated at reference conditions as specified in
8.7.1, the additional percentage error shall not exceed the limits specified for the relevant class
indexes given in Table 6 and Table 7.
Concerning additional percentage error due to temperature variation, the requirements for each sub-
range within the full temperature range specified by the manufacturer apply.
NOTE For example, if the manufacturer specifies that the meter is intended for the temperature range -10 °C to +40 °C, then
the requirements for the sub-ranges 5 °C to 30 °C, -10 °C to 5 °C and 30 °C to 40 °C apply.

8.4 Maximum permissible error (MPE)
In addition to the requirements of 8.1 and 8.3, the composite error of the meter shall not exceed the
values given in Table 8.
When the operating range of the meter covers more than one temperature range, then the respective
requirements for each temperature range apply.
The composite error at a certain load shall be calculated from the following formula:
2 2 2 2
e = e (I, cosϕ) + δ (T ,I,cosϕ) + δ (U,I,cosϕ) + δ (f ,I,cosϕ)
c
where
e(I,cosϕ) = the intrinsic error of the meter at a certain load;
δ (T ,I,cosϕ) = the additional percentage error due to the variation of the temperature at
the same load;
δ (U,I,cosϕ) = the additional percentage error due to the variation of the voltage at the
same load;
δ (f ,I,cosϕ) = the additional percentage error due to the variation of the frequency at the
same load.
See also 8.7.6.
