Finder 07E.16 – 7E Series Energy meters – Accessory

Why Choose the Finder 07E.16 Tamper-Proof Terminal Cover?

The Finder 07E.16 is a dedicated protective terminal cover for compatible Finder 7E Series electricity meters. Designed to provide physical coverage for electrical terminal connections, this genuine Finder accessory supports tamper-evident lead sealing in commercial, industrial and residential energy monitoring installations.

The Finder 07E.16 is compatible with several models in the Finder 7E Series energy meter range, including 7E.12, 7E.16 and 7E.36. Finder documentation also identifies compatibility with selected 7E.46 and 7E.56 meters. This makes it a versatile accessory for single-phase and three-phase electricity metering installations where controlled access to terminal connections is required.

The number of covers required depends on the meter configuration. For Finder 7E.12 and 7E.16 single-phase meters, two terminal covers are required for a complete tamper-evident sealing arrangement. For compatible 7E.36, 7E.46 and 7E.56 three-phase meters, four covers are required. The 07E.16 is a passive mechanical accessory and does not perform electrical measurement, switching or circuit protection.

Secure Terminal Coverage for Finder 7E Series Energy Meters

The Finder 07E.16 is designed to complement compatible Finder 7E Series electricity meters by providing dedicated coverage for their electrical terminal connections. Energy meters are commonly installed in electrical distribution boards and monitoring cabinets to record energy consumption for buildings, machinery, tenants and individual electrical circuits.

In these installations, access to the terminal connections may need to be controlled to discourage interference with the metering arrangement. The 07E.16 terminal cover provides a manufacturer-specified physical barrier and supports the use of a tamper-evident lead seal. A correctly fitted seal can make interference with the covered terminal area more apparent during inspection.

The accessory supports several meter configurations. For compatible Finder 7E.12 and 7E.16 single-phase meters, Finder specifies two covers for the complete sealing arrangement. For compatible 7E.36, 7E.46 and 7E.56 three-phase meters, four covers are specified. This distinction is important when ordering accessories for an installation because a single cover does not constitute a complete sealed meter arrangement.

The Finder 07E.16 is a mechanical accessory rather than an electrical safety device. It does not measure energy consumption, interrupt electrical faults or provide isolation. Its purpose is to cover the designated terminals of the compatible meter and facilitate the specified sealing arrangement.

For a reliable installation, the complete meter model should be checked against Finder's technical documentation. Electrical connections must be safely isolated before installation or maintenance, and the cover should be fitted in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. The complete assembly must also comply with the applicable electrical installation and enclosure requirements.
