Abstract
This paper describes a simple precision multiplier circuit originally designed for use in energy meters offering four time-of-day tariffs, weekday and weekend tariffs and summer and winter tariffs. However, the circuits are applicable to single-phase and three-phase wattmeters as well as single and three-phase prepayment meters
