Abstract

See full text

A remote disconnect collar is provided for use with an electric meter that includes a transceiver for receiving and replying to messages from a master device, such as a CCU, in a PLC type AMR system and also for transmitting connect/disconnect messages to the collar. The collar is provided with a receiver for receiving a connect/disconnect message from the meter, and no hard-wired connection exists between the collar and the meter. Preferably, the remote disconnect collar utilizes a pair of selectively mateable male-female blades that correspond to the connectors in the meter and the interface in a friction fit between the electric meter and the meter socket.
