Features
Product Introduction
These are patented materials which are designed with wisdom and innovative design of Tespro China groups, and the first one is the supporting fixture TP-GS2, the product with small body, but strong adsorption force, which can be clamped to any meter surface. TP-GS2 is capable of supporting any Tespro China optical probes in order to assist optical probe to capture data or detect pulse at any location of the meter.
Strong Compatibility
Mechanical and electronic meter works. Possesses probe holder that fits all Tespro optical probes, accords meters 100 -180 mm wide.
High Insulation Material
Light materials and high insulation make certain safety and transportability to eliminate electric shocks.
Matches All Meter Sizes
Measures any meter, mechanical/electronic, square / round, big/small.
Excellent Performance in Harsh Environment
Constructed with high insulation, light and mobile nature.Performs well in extreme conditions.
Descriptions
Functional Description
- TP-GS2 grips the meter under pressure offered by the two side-plates. The two side-plates both may be swiveled 90 deg to take meter pressure by their springs.
- Two side-plates may slide along on its main board, may be set to suit up to meter width. It measures between 100 and 180 mm (max) in width of meter.
- The main board has two lock buttons on one side-plate. The side-plate may swing in two directions when the buttons which are pressed are in play. The side-plate screwing the main board in one direction does not loosen when the buttons are released. But it may be pushed towards gripping the meter. This is handy that operator can align the side-plates to any width of meters.
- TP-GS2 bracket may be centred on the meter side wall after aligning the width. TP-GS2 is connected to a sensing probe that can move in two directions to focus LED pulses, and is connected to the TP-GS2 through the use of magnetic/ mechanics.
- TP-GS2 consists of insulation substance, thus, making it safe and portable.

Reliable Optical Communication for Smart Metering
The current AMI systems demand the stability and correctness of measurement of data at the meter. Meter reading was tedious and prone to errors.
The optical probes of Tespro such as the TP-BT and USB series allowed automatic retrieval of data through optical ports, and they supported many brands and protocols of meters. Bluetooth and USB models were also flexible and could be used in the field as well as in the desktop.
Case
Product Case
Field inspection team of a utility was experiencing repeated time delay in checking the accuracy of energy meters in residential and commercial zones: service area consisted of a mixture of old and new meters square, round, plastic, and composite with no magnetic mounting points and widths of 100 to 180mm.
Normal probes needed repeated changes of tools or improvised repairs to remain in place and synchronizing with LED pulses on different meter models required more time, reducing the inspection route.
These bottlenecks were removed by the TP-GS2 Optical Probe Fixture by Tespro that has a universal design based on pressure. It does not have magnets, but rather spring-loaded plates of side, which clamp firmly on any meter size or material, and the plates slide freely along the main board to fit the precise widths- held firmly in place by simple buttons to change size instantly.
This saved them the time required to change several mounting tools and instead allowed the technicians to change between different meter models in seconds. The positionality of the fixture was further applied to accurate data capture: attached probes could be moved both vertically and horizontally to get perfect alignment to LED pulses, even on meters with recessed emitters or offset emitters.
The TP-GS2 was also made of insulation material hence provided a safe working environment during on-site operations, be it in small utility closets or outdoor installations. The TP-GS2 changed the workflow of the inspection team: fast width changes, non-magnetic mounting safe, as well as easy probe positioning saved set-up time. They would be able to do more inspections on one trip without affecting the data reliability and thus it is the best option when it comes to fieldwork concerning the use of various models of energy meters.
