<p>A fiscal electricity meter is described for measuring the energy supplied to a load. The load current flows through the primary winding of a transformer and induces an EMF indicative of the current flowing in the secondary winding. The secondary winding comprises a sense coil, arranged to couple more strongly to the primary, and a cancellation coil which have equal and opposite turns area products so as to provide a null response to extraneous magnetic fields. The coils are arranged so that their magnetic axis are co-located and aligned together so that they also provide a null response to extraneous magnetic fields having a field gradient.</p> |
