Description
A rectangular cast iron meter with rounded edges and a square window and makers plate on the face. This German made meter did not belong to the Auckland Electric Power Board (AEPB). At the time the AEPB was the sole electricity authority for Auckland. This was apparently imported, as a check meter, by a German consumer who did not trust the accuracy of British made meters. 230 volt Type ECD.
