Abstract

In a polyphase electric energy meter, voltages of the phases of a polyphase alternating power to be measured are utilized to subject an input pulse signal to be applied to a pulse distributor to pulse width modulation to form polyphase control pulses, which cyclically operate switches provided respectively for the phases so that an operation circuit cyclically receives the voltages and currents of the phases and produces a current output proportional to the sum of the electric powers of the phases.
