Abstract
A three-phase power meter can monitor power on both 3-wire and 4-wire power lines. The power meter measures at least two voltages between phase conductors of the power line, and at least one voltage between a phase conductor and a neutral conductor of the power line when the neutral conductor is available. Using at least some of the measured voltages, the power meter can then operate in a first mode when coupled to a 3-wire power line to determine power on the power line based on the measured voltages, or operate in a second mode when coupled to a 4-wire power line to determine power on the power line based on the measured voltages.
