Meter Retesting Clause Samples
The Meter Retesting clause establishes the procedures and conditions under which a utility meter may be retested to verify its accuracy. Typically, this clause outlines who can request a retest, the process for conducting the retest, and how costs are allocated depending on whether the meter is found to be faulty or accurate. For example, if a customer suspects a meter is over-recording usage, they may request a retest, and if the meter is indeed inaccurate, the utility may bear the cost and adjust the billing. The core function of this clause is to ensure fairness and accuracy in utility billing by providing a clear mechanism for resolving disputes over meter readings.

The requesting Party shall pay for any such retest and shall provide the other Party with not less than 14 days prior Notice of such retest. Such other Party will have the right to have a representative present during such retest. [For facilities other than Gas-fired facilities, omit the bracketed language].
