41.1 The meter cabinet should be made of MS steel plates of minimum thickness 1.2
mm (except for
the roof and base). The minimum thickness of the roof and base MS steel plates should
be 1.5 mm.
41.2 The meter cabinet should have two doors (one inner and one outer door) as shown in
the drawing / 3D model. The inner door should hold the optical port for data interchange
with external devices.
41.3 The inner box should have an adjustable meter fixing plate which allows forward and
backward
movement of the meter as per requirement. The modem fixing plates should be
installed outside the
inner box.
41.4 The base of the outer box should have a gland suitable for insertion of 10 Core,
armoured, 2.5sq.mm
cable. The doors should have proper high quality rubber gaskets to prevent entry of
rain-water, dust
127
etc.
41.5 Both the inner door and outer door should have meter viewing window with high quality
toughened
glass. One metallic wired net (2 mm wire) should be provided at the viewing window of
the outer door so that in case of break the meter is not accessible to unauthorised
people.
