The voltagecoil of the watt-hour meter is permanently connected to the supplylead. When the frequency of the carrier at intermediate frequencyis too high, the phases will be such that the watt-hour meter runs inone direction, and when the frequency of the carrier is too low thewatt-hour meter runs in the other direction. A very small condenseris substituted for the registering mechanism of the watt-hour condenser is connected to the beating oscillator circuit and thewhole circuit arranged in such a manner that the watt-hour meter runs. 500 BELL SYSTEM TECHNICAL JOURNAL until the beating oscillator gives the proper frequency, when theaction stops. Since this automatic tuning unit holds the carrier at intermediatefrequency in a fixed relation with respect to a crystal filter, which maydrift slightly in resonant frequency from time to time, and not insynchronism with a local carrier oscillator, it is necessary that a sepa- INCOMING CARRIER400 Kc.
