Method for short circuit replacement of electric energy meter

The invention relates to the technical field of power equipment maintenance, in particular to a method for short circuit replacement of an electric energy meter. A base and a plug arranged on the baseare included, and a to-be-replaced electric energy meter and a short circuit assembly which are arranged on the base and connected with the plug are further included. The method includes the steps: the short circuit assembly is inserted into a short circuit hole of the plug connected to the inlet-outlet line end of the to-be-replaced electric energy meterto short out the to-be-replaced electric energy meter; the electric quantity of the to-be-replaced electric energy meter is recorded; the to-be-replaced electric energy meter is removed from a socket and a new electric energy meter is inserted into the plug; and the electric quantity count on the new electric energy meter is changed to be consistent with the electric quantity of the to-be-replaced electric energy meter, and then the shortcircuit assembly is remov
