Zusammenfassung:This invention relates generally to electronic electricity meters and, more particularly, to a low cost, high accuracy current conductor configuration for the electronic electricity meter for the primary current carrying conductors. A current sensor assembly includes a plurality of symmetric current conductors that pass asymmetrically through an opening in a toroidal core having a sensing winding wound on the core. A blade is connected to each end of the conductors. Each of the conductors has the general shape of a "V" as viewed along a central axis passing through the opening in the toroidal core.
