Author: R. W. Little

Abstract: For the past decade, Canada has been committed to adopting the metric system as its standard measurement system, as have most nations in the world. Union Gas Limited, a natural gas utility serving southwestern Ontario, converted a large portion of its operation to metric in 1980 with the aim of being entirely metric within the next several years. The Distribution Engineering Department within Union Gas has been heavily involved in the conversion of the distribution construction and maintenance functions. This paper reviews the process Distribution Engineering employed in planning and implementing use of the metric system in these areas, and provides a viewpoint on its approach after having operated in metric for one year.
