Abstract

An enclosure for watthour meters includes a cover having an opening for connecting a meter data sending unit within the enclosure to an adjacent remote meter reading terminal unit. A cover locking rim has locking tabs for securing the cover to a meter base assembly so that the cover is rotatably positionable relative to the base. The rotated positions of the cover opening permit different orientations of a remote meter reading package at a fixed meter mounting position.
