Wis. Admin. Code Public Service Commission PSC 185.73

Current through November 25, 2024
Section PSC 185.73 - Testing of customer meters
(1) The test of any customer meter shall consist of a comparison of its accuracy with that of a standard of known accuracy. Where the test standard consists of a previously calibrated reference or service meter, the test results for the customer meter shall be adjusted to compensate for the inaccuracies of the reference meter at the particular flow rates.
(2) A utility shall test a meter "as found," or before repair, and, unless the meter must be retained under s. PSC 185.77(3), "as left," or after repair.
(3) The volume of water through the meter at each test flow point shall be sufficient to produce at least one revolution of the test dial except at the "minimum test flow" point when said volume of water shall produce at least one-half revolution of the test dial.
(4) A meter not meeting the accuracy or other requirements of s. PSC 185.61 or 185.65 shall, unless the meter must be retained under s. PSC 185.77(3), be repaired or rebuilt to meet those requirements before further use.
