Abstract: The entire concept of meter maintenance is rooted in economics. Both the gas company and the customer look upon ihe gas meter as a cash register-an arbiter of dollars-because each is concerned that true value be received for money spent. Regulatory agencies have part of their roots bedded deeply in ihe economics that stem from the publics desire that some basis of law guarantee fair treatment in the market place. The forces of both law and economics are sufficiently powerful to make mandatory a meter maintenance program for any gas company. The key to any meter maintenance program very likely will be a testing procedure to determine the accuracy of a meter. So long as a meter holds its abililv to measure gas correctly, there is Mitle or no need to perform any maintenance-except. perhaps, for paint and corrosion control. There arc three devices that are light weight and portable that can be used for testing large meters in place in the field.
