Striebel & John BF17B1R7RE 1Z 16Q Complete Meter Field with BKE-I, Disconnect Point, 63A, 5-Pole Busbar, Pre-wired

Unlike modular meter kits that require on-site assembly, the BF17B1R7RE 1Z 16Q from Striebel & John arrives fully pre-wired and factory-tested, ready for immediate connection in residential and commercial distribution systems. This complete meter field integrates a BKE-I meter mounting interface, a main line branch terminal rated to 63 A, and a disconnect point, all built to DIN VDE 0603-1 and DIN 43870-1 standards.

Highlights

• One meter position with BKE-I interface for electronic meters (eHZ)
• Integrated 16 mm² main line branch terminal (HAK) rated to 63 A
• Disconnect point for safe isolation during maintenance
• 5-pole busbar system (L1, L2, L3, N, PE) with screw terminals
• Pre-wired and ready for immediate installation
• 3-pole space reserved for a main circuit breaker (SLS-Schalter)
• Galvanized sheet steel construction for durability

In daily use

This meter field simplifies compliance and safety in any low-voltage distribution setup. The BKE-I mounting accepts standard electronic meters without adapters, while the pre-wired busbar reduces wiring errors and speeds up commissioning. The disconnect point allows the meter to be isolated without disturbing upstream circuits—ideal for service work or meter replacement. The galvanized steel housing provides mechanical protection and, when installed in a suitable enclosure, achieves IP2XC protection against contact with live parts.
