I-210+ User Manual

Physical Description

The I-210+ meter is furnished with a standard UV stabilized polycarbonate cover. 

The sides of the cover are designed to be reflective to minimize solar heating and 

obscure the internal components of the meter. Other cover options are available on 

request.

The meter base assembly contains current sensing CTs and the necessary potential 

connections to configure the meter for specific applications. The meter base 

configuration is set in the factory and not designed for field modification (except 

for 5th terminal location). The I-210+ is available with optional potential test links 

in forms 2S and 12S.

The Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) indicates energy consumption and optionally 

instantaneous demand or voltage on the lower three-digit informational display. 

The display is soldered directly to the meter circuit board for high reliability. The 

display features are covered in detail 

AMR options may be installed on a supporting plastic bridge which mounts into 

the meter base, or they may be mounted in the Nameplate Carrier itself, depending 

on the size and construction details of the specific option.

A configuration port is located at the 3 o’clock position of the meter face. The port 

is used in conjunction with a reset adapter that mounts over the cover and 

MeterMate software (version 5.41 or greater) to reset accumulated energy to zero. 

The port is intended for factory or shop use and is not designed for use in direct 

sunlight. (Please see 

Configuration Port 

on page 19 for more information.)
