+### Working Principle:
20
+
21
+A single-phase counter energy meter calculates the actual electricity consumption by measuring the product of voltage and current, combined with the meter's internal time reference. Its basic components include:
22
+
23
+- Voltage and current sensors: Detect the voltage and current in the circuit.
24
+- Energy calculation module: Calculates power and accumulates it into electricity consumption.
25
+- Display module: Displays the cumulative electricity consumption.
26

27
+
28
+
29
+### Application Scenarios:
30
+
31
+- Residential homes: Monitors daily electricity consumption in households.
32
+- Small shops: Records daily electricity usage for small businesses.
33
+- Rental properties: Tracks electricity consumption for billing purposes.
34
+
35
+For a more advanced option, you can consider smart energy meters with remote communication features, which support remote meter reading and real-time electricity usage analysis.
