IntelliSeal LLP proudly introduces iPROTECT, an advanced high-security meter seal designed specifically for modern smart metering applications. iPROTECT offers superior tamper evidence, durability, and traceability, providing utilities with a reliable, cost-effective solution to secure electric, water, and gas meters. With seamless integration into existing utility workflows, iPROTECT enhances operational control while ensuring protection against unauthorised access, manipulation, and fraud.

Smart meter protection for utilities
The iPROTECT seal is purpose-built for single-use, tamper-evident applications. Once locked, the seal cannot be opened without visible damage and must be removed using a cutting tool, ensuring maximum security.

Features of each seal include:

  • Transparent coloured housing for visual inspection
  • High-contrast opaque locking insert
  • Laser-engraved utility ID
  • Non-repetitive sequential numbering
  • 2D Data Matrix barcode for digital traceability
  • Unique identification for every seal
  • These features offer utilities complete accountability and simplify audit processes.

    Advanced design and durable materials



    Manufactured with high-strength polycarbonate and twisted stainless steel sealing wire, the iPROTECT seal ensures exceptional durability for field installations. The sealing process is simple: pass the wire through the meter holes, insert the wire into the seal body, and manually press the locking insert. Once locked, a multi-level locking mechanism prevents reopening without destruction. The transparent housing allows visual inspection, tamper detection, lock verification, and internal mechanism visibility.

    The seal is applied by:
    1. Passing the sealing wire through the meter holes
    2. Inserting wire into seal body
    3. Pressing push-fit locking insert manually
    4. Locking achieved without tools
    Once locked, the multi-level locking mechanism prevents reopening without destruction.

    The transparent housing allows:

  • Visual inspection
  • Tamper detection
  • Lock verification
  • Internal mechanism visibility
  • Exclusive security features



    Multi-level locking protection: The push-fit locking system creates multiple locking points for maximum resistance against tampering. Tamper-evident construction: Attempts such as pulling, cutting, twisting, heating, or drilling will cause visible damage, ensuring immediate detection. Laser-marked identification: Both the housing and insert carry laser markings to prevent identity manipulation or replacement.

    Pull-resistant guard: A special sealing wire guard provides additional resistance against pulling attempts.
