MAGNETIC INSENSITIVE LATCH ACTUATED RELAY FOR ELECTRICITY METER

摘要

The present invention relates to a relay (1) and to an electricity meter with a relay. The relay comprises a latch actuator (2), possible a linear solenoid-based actuator, and a mechanical latch (3) operable to cyclic switch between a first latch position and a second latch position. A relay actuator (4) is coupled to the latch to follow a movement of the latch, and to a contact spring (6) which closes or interrupts an electric circuit between a first and a second relay terminal (7, 8). The contact spring is part of a conductor path (15-18), where the conductor path comprises at least one bend (17) so that the conductor path comprises a first section (15) and a second section (16) facing each other.
