•Indicate Current without Voltage on Meter
• Contact DISCOM immediately

The glowing of the EL LED indicates the following:
Earth is being used as neutral.
Neutral is touching the earth.
Phase / Neutral wire is touching with
the neighbors phase / Neutral wire.
Neutral wire is interconnected with the
neighbors neutral wire.
KNOW ABOUT KNOW ABOUT ELEL
14
Wrong wiring, among others things can result in:
Safety hazards (wires are still live, even when the main switch is off).
Cause fire (if by mistake phase and neutral wires get interchanged)
Wrong Current flow (the neighbours current can flow through your meter)

15
Good electronic meters have Current sensors in both the
Phase path, and Neutral path
For Measurement it choose higher * of the two current.
For Measurement it choose higher * of the two current.
* In general Phase current is used for measurement however if neutral Current more by 10~ 12 % then Neutral current selected
16
Electro-mechanical Meter has Current sensor only on one wire
All Measurement based on phase wire current even when connected to neutral.
All Measurement based on phase wire current even when connected to neutral.
17
Good electronic meters have Current sensors in both the
Phase path, and Neutral path This is an advantage of electronic meters over electromechanical meters
This is an advantage of electronic meters over electromechanical meters
Never buy electronic meters without this featureNever buy electronic meters without this featureBut neutral looping may cause the meter
to “run Extra”But neutral looping may cause the meter
to “run Extra”
18
If EL ON, get your internal wiring checked for any leakages and other problems and also carefully look at the EL LED in the Electronic Meters. EL LED, in Electronic Meters, however small, is of great importance and consumers are advised not to ignore its usefulness.

If no. of Meter in one Premise
is only one then there is no common Neutral problem.
