The Types DS-19, DS-34, D S-38, DS-40, and DS-43
meters are back-connected, switchboard, two-stator,
.,
polyphase meters. The DS-20, DS-35, D S-39, DS-41,
and DS-44 are the corresponding three-stator meters.
The above meters can be furnished self-contained
in current capacities o
voltages up to 600 volts.
can be furnished for use with both current and poten­
tial transformers or with current transformers only.
The meters are called Types DSW-19, DSW-34,
DSW-38, DSW-40, D SW-43, and DSW-20, DSW-35,
DSW-39, DSW-41, and D SW-44 when they are equip­
ped with contact device terminals and 2-wire or 3-wire
contact devices.
contact devices accompany such meters.
The meters are known as Types DSM-19, DSM-34,
DSM-38, DSM-40, D SM-43, and DSM-20, DSM-35,
DSM-39, DSM-41, and DSM-44 watthour demand
meters when they are equipped with demand meter
registers.
Separate instructions covering the register
and containing supplementary diagrams and dimen­
sions accompany these watthour demand meters.
The DS-19 and DS-20 polyphase watthour meters
are designed for surface mounting and are equ\pped
with two studs for this purpose at the top center and
bottom center of the case.
The DS-34 and DS-35 meters are the corresponding

meters have jewel bearings which may be injured by
rough handling; consequently all wiring and hammer­
