The TESCO Desktop Meter Station is an extremely versatile piece of testing equipment. It can be used as a programming station, a single meter evaluation station, or a test bed for checking meter features and anomalies. The newly designed Meter Station not only has the ability to simply warm-up meters, but also has optional features such as an external load (1PH) or an internal phantom load (0.5A), an optional disconnect operation (500VA XFMR), a load receptacle, or a tilt chassis. For easy operation, all options are conveniently mounted on the front panel.

This optional feature will have one set of panel mounted female sheathed banana plug connections and an adapter cable to facilitate TWACS® communications to the meter from the users TWACS® PRTU Module.
