TAMPER-RESISTANT ELECTRICAL METER HOUSING ABSTRACT A tamper-resistant electrical meter housing includes an unbreakable cover assembly that cooperates with a matable base to enclose a meter device supportable on the base. The cover assembly includes an annular ring secured to the cover. A locking leaf spring is coupled to the cover assembly. The leaf spring is aligned to slide along the top of a rim portion of the base and snap into a recess to lock the cover assembly against rotation and removal. Once the cover assembly is locked to the base, the leaf spring is substantially con- cealed from view, so that an unauthorized person cannot effect removal of the cover to obtain access to the meter. The base also includes a specific area in alignment with the recess, which area is identifiable only by an authorized person. A hole may be drilled in this area by an authorized person and a tool may then be inserted through this hole to effect dis- engagement of the leaf spring and removal of the cover assembly from the base.
