Ground Tab on Back of KWH Meters [RE-wrenches]

[Mark Byington]

"On the back of this meter is a tab which spans
two terminals. Do I have to connect the ground / neutral lug on one of these
terminals and should the tab be opened?"

When using a 240V meter such as a GE I-70S in a 120V application, we disconnect the small tab on the back of the meter and connect the lower screw to ground.  Leave the upper screw, the one on which the tab rotates, open.
