Abstract: Consider the work load placed upon a typical residential meter. For the conditions around this part of the coxmtry, a meter will go through approximately 765,000 complete cycles in just one year. That number comes from a common residential usage of 85 Mcf per year and nine revolutions per cubic foot for a typical domestic meter. Let us further assume that the meter stays in the field for at least 10 years. That results in 7,65 million cycles a simple residential meter has to make before it is checked. This should more than justify the honor of being coined, the industrys low maintenance workhorse. Lets look at the internal workings of a domestic meter, some of the problems it may experience, and some of the ways to test and repair this workhorse.
