Finder 07E.13 – 7E Series Energy meters – Accessory

Why Choose the Finder 07E.13 Tamper-Proof Terminal Cover?

The Finder 07E.13 is a dedicated protective terminal cover for Finder 7E.13 single-phase electricity meters. Designed as part of the Finder 7E Series energy metering accessory range, this compact cover provides an additional physical barrier over the meter's electrical terminals and supports the installation of a tamper-evident lead seal where required.

Specifically designed for the Finder Type 7E.13 energy meter, the 07E.13 accessory is suitable for electrical distribution boards, energy monitoring panels and sub-metering installations. The cover helps restrict casual access to the meter's terminal connections and supports a more controlled arrangement for electrical metering equipment.

Finder specifies that two 07E.13 terminal covers are required for a tamper-proof lead-sealed arrangement. This allows the relevant terminal areas of the compatible meter to be covered and sealed as part of a properly installed metering system. The accessory is a mechanical component and does not perform electricity measurement, provide circuit protection or replace the associated energy meter.

Practical Terminal Protection for Finder 7E Series Electricity Metering

The Finder 07E.13 is intended for use with the Finder 7E.13 single-phase energy meter, a compact device designed to measure electrical energy consumption in suitable 230 V AC installations. The associated meter has a nominal current of 5 A, a maximum current of 32 A and a slim 17.5 mm housing for installation on a standard DIN rail.

In electricity metering installations, terminal connections are an important part of the system. Appropriate terminal coverage helps provide a physical barrier to the connection area and can discourage unauthorised interference. The 07E.13 terminal cover is designed specifically for this purpose, providing a compatible accessory rather than requiring a generic enclosure modification.

For installations requiring a tamper-evident seal, Finder specifies the use of two 07E.13 terminal covers. Once correctly installed with suitable sealing hardware, the arrangement can make interference with the covered terminals more apparent. The cover itself does not detect tampering electronically and should not be considered a substitute for appropriate metering security procedures.

The 07E.13 is not an electricity meter. It does not display kilowatt-hours, measure current, transmit consumption data or provide electrical isolation. Those functions, where applicable, belong to the compatible meter and other equipment within the electrical installation.

Installation should be carried out by a competent person in accordance with the meter manufacturer's instructions. The circuit must be safely isolated before accessing electrical terminals, and the completed assembly must retain the required electrical clearances, enclosure protection and installation safety provisions.
