This standard covers encoder-type remote-registration systems for use on cold-water meters for water utility customer service, particularly the materials and workmanship employed in the fabrication and assembly of the on-meter registers.

This standard can be referenced in specifications for purchasing and receiving cold-water meters for water utility customer service and can be used as a guide for fabricating and assembling encoder-type remote-registration systems for cold-water meters. The stipulations of this standard apply when this document has been referenced and then only to encoder-type remote-registration systems for cold-water meters for water supply service applications.
