1  Introduction 

1.1  General Description 

The Polaris 1000 meter is an electronic kilowatt-hour (kWh) meter that is 

designed for permanent connection to an electrical service. It is designed for single 

phase applications.   

Polaris 1000 meters can be used in 1 phase 2 wire and 1 or 2 phase 3 wire 

configurations.   

1.2  Features 

 

Revenue-grade accuracy 

 

Non-volatile memory, the stored data is maintained through power outages 

 

Use with DAE

’s dedicated split-core CTs (50~600A). Optional solid-core CTs 

available in 50 & 200A. 

 

Parallel up to three sets of CTs for cumulative reading
