Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An intelligent electronic device (IED) is provided. The IED includes a metering sub-assembly and an input base module sub-assembly. The metering sub-assembly is hinged to the input base module sub-assembly, where when in an open position, various cables, connectors, and input/output cards/modules are accessible. Various input/output cards/modules are interchangeable to add/change functionality and/or communication capabilities to the IED.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . An intelligent electrical device (IED) comprising: an input base module sub-assembly including base having a plurality of apertures, a first, second, and third current input blade disposed in a respective aperture and a corresponding fourth, fifth, and sixth input current blade disposed in a respective aperture; a metering sub-assembly including a first, second, and third current plate disposed on a first surface of the metering sub-assembly and a corresponding fourth, fifth, and sixth current plate disposed on a second surface of the metering sub-assembly opposite to the first surface, the first current plate coupled to the first current input blade, the second current plate coupled to the second current input blade, the third current plate hingedly coupled to the third current input blade, the fourth current plate coupled to the fourth current input blade, the fifth current plate coupled to the fifth current input blade, and the sixth current plate hingedly coupled to the sixth current input blade, wherein the input base module sub-assembly can be pivoted about the third current plate and third current input blade and the sixth current plate and sixth current input blade to achieve an open position and a closed position relative to the metering sub-assembly; and at least one current sensor that senses current provided to a respective current input blade.
