Abstract: The local distribution system of the gas industry network is the means for delivering natural gas to the ultimate users of this valuable energy commodity. Users are classified as either residential, commercial, or industrial accounts and for each of these types of consumers, the distribution company must have proper measurement equipment in place. Residential metering is quite simple because the gas pressure is very low, just enough to get it to flow into the house and provide gas to the furnace, the water heater, range, dryer, or other appliance. Most commercial metering is equally simple. The meter may be larger in size, but the metering pressure again is very low, amounting to approximately 1/4 psi which is equivalent to 4 ounces gauge or 7 inches water column pressure. Industry practice is to read the meter index for metered volume and render the bill to the customer.
