Definitions

  • This invention relates to commodity consumption meters, such as for example water, gas
  • Commodity consumption meters have traditionally measured, and kept a record of, the number of relevant units of commodity consumed since the installation of the meter. Settlement of the consumer's account often took place quarterly, requiring regular inspections of the meter by the commodity supplier to determine the number of units of commodity consumed.
  • Electricity consumption meters have been developed which can communicate with the commodity supplier by way of radio transmission, a consumer's telephone link, by mains-borne signalling or by other means thereby reducing the need for regular inspection of the meter.
  • prepayment meters into which the consumer places money, tokens or other forms of credit and the meter continues to provide the commodity whilst credit is present.
  • Such meters can be particularly useful in rented premises where frequent
  • Designing meters is costly since they must meet stringent regulations laid down by the appropriate authorities and must be approved by those authorities before they can be installed onto the electrical system.
  • a modular electricity meter which comprises a basic meter to which add-on modules can be attached.
  • the basic meter module can measure consumption of electricity and keep a running total of the number of units of electricity used which is displayed on a liquid crystal display (LCD).
  • the basic meter also includes an optical communications port
  • the add-on modules include a further display for displaying the information appropriate to the ancillary function provided by the add-on module.
  • the addition of this display thus renders the display on the basic meter redundant and it is known to arrange the casing of the add-on module to physically obscure the display of the basic meter.
  • the present invention has arisen in an endeavour to provide a commodity consumption meter which is flexible and can accommodate future metering needs and which at least in part overcomes the limitations of the known arrangements.
  • a commodity consumption meter of a type to which add-on circuitry can be attached to provide at least one function
  • said commodity consumption meter comprising: an electrical circuit having metering means for
  • an interface circuit for controlling data supplied to a display which is connectable to said interface circuit wherein the interface circuit is operable in a first mode of operation to relay consumption data from the metering means to the display and is operable in a second mode of operation to provide data to the display from the add-on circuitry which is connectable to an
  • Constructing a meter in accordance with the invention enables a whole family of meters to be constructed all of which are based on an electrical circuit which is common to
  • the provision of the interface circuit enables a meter to be constructed which uses a single display and consequently the only cost in terms of redundant components is in the inclusion of some additional icons on the display.
  • the interface circuit is further operable to relay consumption data from the measuring means to the add-on circuitry via the additional connection.
  • additional processing of the consumption data is required such as for example for multi-tariff meters, that is, a meter in which the cost for a given unit of the commodity is different at different times of the day, or on different days, or where the consumption data recorded in the electrical circuit is to be transmitted by the add-on circuitry to a remote point such as, for example, in remote meter reading applications.
  • circuitry and in the event of not receiving a recognised stimulus is operable to generate
  • an error signal is used to reset the add-on circuitry into a valid mode of operation.
  • the interface circuit is operable in a calibration mode to pass
  • circuitry ensuring the meter can be accurately calibrated within the tolerance of the

  • the additional connection is only accessible from within the sealed housing and the add-on circuitry
  • the commodity consumption meter comprises an electricity consumption
  • the electrical circuit includes means for detecting a fault condition in the
  • the commodity consumption meter further comprises
  • non- volatile memory non- volatile memory and the electrical circuit is operable to store the consumption data
  • the electrical circuit advantageously generates an error signal when a fault condition in the electricity supply is detected, and said signal is passed to the additional connection, thereby activating the add-on circuitry to take any necessary
  • the electricity meter's input comprises respective inputs for electrical
  • the measuring means comprises means for converting said signals to digital signals and processing means for processing the digital signals to produce a value representative of the electrical power consumed.
  • the commodity consumption meter comprises, for example, a water or gas consumption meter.
  • the electrical circuit preferably comprises an integrated circuit.
  • the term 'integrated circuit' is to be construed broadly and thus includes not only circuits which are formed on a single substrate, such as silicon, but also those which comprise a number of separate semi-conductor chips mounted on a common substrate such as for example a ceramic substrate. It will be appreciated therefore that the term 'integrated circuit' refers to a circuit which is formed as a single package as opposed to a circuit constructed from a number of discrete components.

  • the meter 2 measures the electrical energy being consumed by measuring the voltages v ; and v v occurring across the shunt resistor 12 and the resistor 14
  • the shunt resistor 12 conveniently comprises a manganin resistor such that its resistance is substantially invariant of its temperature and provides an accurate measurement over the full operating current range of the meter.

  • each counter 48 stores the number of units of electricity consumed for a respective tariff.

  • the multiplexed connection between display driver 26 and display 8 is preferred, it will be appreciated that this is not essential to the present invention.
  • a multiplexed connection (sixteen electrical connections in the example shown for a forty-eight segment four backplane display) has the advantage of a reduced number of output pins on ASIC 6, thus making the ASIC 6 cheaper to manufacture, but this saving in cost is achieved at the expense of increased complexity in both the display driver 26 and the LCD 8.
