Watt hour meter with calender of recycling ideas

摘要

A time-of-use meter is provided with a means for storing a plurality of identifiers that each represent a cyclic event. These cyclic events are described in such a way that a single word of storage is sufficient to represent numerous occurrences of the cyclic event over a period of many years. A microprocessor-based calendar program is provided with a means for storing a plurality of cyclic event identifiers and special event identifiers in a manner which significantly reduces the required memory storage within the microprocessor and its peripheral memory devices.
