Abstract
In a watt-hour meter pulse width modulated signals, representing the voltage supplied to a load, serve as chopping signals that modulates a waveform representing current to produce an output indicative of power. A series of pulses is spaced on the basis of the power signal and the number of pulses connected as a measure of energy.
