A metering compartment groups specified measurement devices and associated wiring.
Coordinate door-mounted instruments, CT/VT interfaces and test access. The GA locates the physical item; the associated schematic or equipment schedule records its electrical interfaces.
The preview is independent educational geometry and is not a manufacturer outline, fabrication drawing or verified standard graphic. Obtain the applicable model drawing from the cited official source before making a dimensional layout.

## How to read it

- Coordinate door-mounted instruments, CT/VT interfaces and test access.
- Metering may share an enclosure with other equipment or use a separate compartment.

## Information to show or reference

- Confirm the exact equipment identity, drawing revision and installation orientation.
- Coordinate door-mounted instruments, CT/VT interfaces and test access.
- Cross-reference the terminals, cable routes and service tasks with the equipment schedule.

## Important distinction

Metering may share an enclosure with other equipment or use a separate compartment.
