 The Conlog E-Kard split meter has been designed
split electricity meters
for maximum security against fraud whilst still
retaining customer convenience. The E-Kard split
meter is available for both single and three phase
meter applications.
The split meter separates the User Interface Unit
(UIU) from the Measurement and Control Unit
(MCU). The MCU can be placed in the existing
meter box for retrofit installations or for ultimate
security, these units can even be placed in a secure
pole-mounted housing. The two units communicate
with each other over a pair of communication wires.
Measurement and Control Unit (MCU) FEATURES
The MCU contains the measurement and control
circuits. This includes; a power supply, a reset • UIU and MCU split for added security

The UIU draws its power from the MCU via the
communication wires. All Conlog meters are
designed to ensure user friendliness thus
incorporating a large format custom designed LCD
display and a rate LED that gives a visual indication
of consumption. Credit is transferred by means of
a keypad (70P). Secure data transfer takes place
via an encryption algorithm included within the

completely sealed and tamper resistant.
