Section 170IAC5-1-8. Meter accuracy; error rates

   Every gas service meter, whether new, repaired, or removed from service for any cause, when installed for the use of any customer, must be in good order and must have been adjusted to be as near zero (0) error as practicable, but not more than one and one-half percent (1 1/2%), plus or minus, in error when gas is flowing, at its check rate. Every meter shall also be adjusted so that the accuracy at open rate or full flow shall be within one percent (1%), plus or minus, of the accuracy at its check flow. The error of the meter shall be the average error of the check and open rates.
