Abstract: The maintenance of its large capacity displacement meters while in service is a very important gas measurement function in any gas company. The cost of bringing these meters into a i-epair shop for testing is prohibitive, especially if they are tested at sufficiently frequent intervals that accurate measurement is maintained. As a result the testing of these meters at their service location Is necessary, and thl.s work becomes a large factor in the activity of the field meter inspector. This subject has been treated very comprehensively by others in previous meetings of the Southwestern Gas Measurement Short Course, and I can only bring to your attention once more the mechanics and administration of these methods of testing. Several methods of testing meters in service have been devised, any of which may, under proper testing conditions, be used for testing meters operating under high pressures, However, it is customary to use the methods for low pressure testing on meters operating under low pressures, and high pressure test methods lor meters operating under pressures exceeding 15 pound gauge,
