Why Choose the ABB AG164 Meter Cover 250 × 300 mm 1PW?
The ABB AG164 is a purpose-designed meter cover for electrical distribution boards, intended for use with compatible low-voltage electrical distribution assemblies incorporating metering equipment. Manufactured by ABB and belonging to the DESUJ Sub Distribution product group, this accessory provides a dedicated covering solution for professional electrical panel builders, electrical contractors and switchgear manufacturers.
Featuring nominal dimensions of 250 mm wide × 300 mm high, the AG164 is specified for a 1PW cover configuration. Its meter cover designation identifies it as an accessory intended for compatible electrical metering arrangements. The compact rectangular format makes it relevant to designated distribution board sections requiring the specified cover dimensions and a suitable metering equipment layout.
Identified by ABB order code 2CPX062890R9999, the AG164 supports accurate accessory selection for new electrical installations, distribution board construction, metering panel refurbishment and replacement work. Its combination of a 250 mm width, 300 mm height and 1PW designation helps panel builders identify the correct cover for compatible ABB sub-distribution assemblies.

Dedicated Meter Covering for Electrical Distribution Systems
Metering equipment plays an important role in low-voltage electrical distribution systems, supporting the measurement and monitoring of electrical energy and other operating parameters. Distribution board accessories intended for metering sections must be selected to suit the specific equipment arrangement, available installation space and applicable assembly requirements. Correct cover selection helps maintain a consistent panel layout and the intended mechanical arrangement around the installed metering components.
The ABB AG164 combines a 250 mm width with a 300 mm height and is designated for a 1PW cover arrangement. Its compact rectangular format makes it relevant to compatible distribution board sections requiring a meter cover of these dimensions. The meter cover designation identifies its intended application, although precise meter compatibility, aperture geometry and any viewing or operating provisions must be confirmed from ABB technical documentation.
Unlike a general-purpose solid cover or a slotted cover intended for modular electrical devices, the AG164 is specifically identified as a meter cover. This distinction is important when selecting accessories for electrical distribution assemblies because different cover types may have different opening arrangements, mounting requirements and intended equipment applications. Matching nominal dimensions alone does not establish interchangeability.
The AG164 also differs from the ABB AG163 meter cover, which measures 750 × 150 mm and carries a 3PW configuration. Although both products are intended for compatible electrical metering sections, their dimensions and configurations differ. Selection should therefore be based on the specified ABB assembly arrangement rather than the general meter cover designation alone.
As part of the ABB DESUJ Sub Distribution accessory range, the AG164 supports professional panel-building, switchgear assembly and metering equipment installation. Before installation, verify the 250 × 300 mm dimensions, 1PW configuration, meter compatibility, mounting positions, access requirements and necessary fixing hardware against the relevant ABB technical documentation. The AG164 is a mechanical cover accessory rather than an electrical meter or standalone protective device. Any required ingress protection rating, protection against contact with live parts or compliance with applicable electrical assembly standards must be established for the complete installed system.
