lemon squesy bud, live in. netral in. neutral out. live out. May have auxillary terminations for night rate.
Go onto web site Stephen P. Wales and there is a clear diagram. Enough slack in the cable is always a problem, however, pull main cable back from board install into meter, then new length from meter to board. Basically they are just like a normal house meter.
about an hour per meter, scrw to wall and put wires in, etc, programming is fun. If economy seven is involved, get the right meter so that the tennant doesnt have to wait untill midnight before the meter becomes live so they can feed it with money/cards.

You will also need an Earth block as these meters dont have any kind of Earth rail or terminal.
