F.3.2.2 Form 4 Meter—The form 4 meter is a single phase meter that has 2 current
coils and 1 stator. It is a CT rated meter. One test is required to test this type of meter.
The hookup is as follows:
Meter Test Hookup
Secondary Voltage Cable
o Red & Yellow (or green for older units) Alligator clips to line 1
o White alligator clip to line 2. This produces V
12.
o Black alligator clip leave unconnected
Secondary Current Cable
o A phase clamp-on CT or duckbill connector copper side up in line 1 (I
1
)
o B phase clamp-on CT or duckbill connector copper side down in line 2 (I
2
)
F.3.2.3 Form 5 Meters—Form 5 meters are polyphase meters that have 2 current
coils and 2 stators. They are CT rated meters. It will require 1 test to determine the
accuracy of the meter. The hookup is as follows for the 4 different configurations of a form
5 meter:
