I'm wondering what could this be?

1175474473 540 FT0 Img 1961

1175474473 540 FT0 Img 1960

And I wanted to know how I could zero this meter?

It has a glass shield soldered on to it.

Is there any use for a current xfmr that has a freq range of 350-1000 Hz?

The first thing looks a bit like a buzzer to me. What happens when you apply a voltage to it?

I would say buzzer for the first one, possibly an overtemp switch.

As to the meter, there isn't any chance that you can pull some screws off the back and pull the whole assembly out? Short of that, you could rotate it at an odd angle ;)


As to the current transformer, it would probably work at 60hz (although not very well methinks)...

The meter is 1mA full-scale-deflection, scaled 0 to 1.
To convert to a voltmeter add a (1kOhm x Voltage) resistor in series with the meter.
e.g. to use it for 0-1 kV use a 1 MOhm resistor.
NOTE: 1mA x 1kV = 1 Watt, so use a 2W or more rated resistor.

I've no idea what the first item is.
