Abstract
An electricity meter includes a front circuit connected to an external transformer and a conductor connected to the external transformer via the front circuit; a test circuit including a test generation chain and a test measuring chain connected to the conductor and a processing component; the test generation chain being arranged to apply a test voltage on the conductor, which produces a test current circulating in the test measuring chain, the test voltage having a level which depends on the impedance of the external transformer, the processing component being arranged to detect a cutoff of the external transformer when the level of the test voltage is greater than a predefined detection threshold.
