## Document text

PSC 134.11 Meters and control equipment.

(1) Where possible to do so, all gas quantities required to be reported to the commission shall be metered.

(2) All gas sold to customers shall be measured by commercially acceptable measuring devices owned and maintained by the utility. The maintenance of the accuracy of the meters shall be the responsibility of the utility.

(3) Every reasonable effort shall be made to measure at one meter location all gas quantities necessary for billing the customer.

(4) All gas customers of the same type, pressure, and/or volume classification shall have their gas metered with instruments having like characteristics and at the same pressure base, except that the commission may approve the use of instruments of different types if their use does not result in unreasonable discrimination.

(5) Any regulators or equipment used to provide service in accordance with commission or filed utility rules and rates shall be commercially acceptable devices owned and maintained by the utility.

(6) A temperature-compensating meter shall be used whenever a gas meter is subject to the elements of the weather or wide variations in temperature. All present non-compensating installations subject to the elements of the weather and wide variations in temperature shall be changed so that 100% compliance will be attained by the end of the first complete testing cycle as provided in s. PSC 134.30 (1).

  "section": "PSC 134.11",
  "category": "gas-utility-service",
  "currentThrough": "2026-08-01",
  "currentnessBasis": "Official publisher states the entire administrative code is current and updated on the first day of each month.",
  "legalScope": "This completeness-verified corpus contains every current section of Wisconsin Administrative Code Chapters PSC 133, 134, and 135, plus complete Wis. Stat. §§ 196.745 and 182.0175. Chapter PSC 135 is the dedicated gas-safety chapter. Chapters PSC 133 and 134 are included because the Wisconsin PSC identifies all three chapters as requirements used in pipeline-safety inspections; they also contain broader construction, siting, utility-service, billing, metering, and customer provisions.",
  "applicabilityCaveat": "Applicability depends on Wisconsin PSC jurisdiction, operator and facility type, intrastate or interstate status, gas-public-utility status, project thresholds, activity, exemptions, waivers, Commission orders, federal preemption, and the specific provision. Wis. Stat. § 196.745 excludes propane distribution systems from the PSC pipeline-safety program, while the one-call law reaches transmission facilities beyond natural-gas pipelines.",
  "incorporationCaveat": "Chapter PSC 135 adopts and supplements federal minimum pipeline-safety standards, principally 49 CFR Parts 191, 192, 193, and 199. The source also cites statutes, administrative rules, Commission forms and orders, and private technical standards. References are retained as metadata; incorporated material is not reproduced and its edition, legal effect, and licensing must be verified at the referenced source.",
  "rightsCaveat": "Official Wisconsin Legislature and Public Service Commission text is preserved with attribution and source hashes. Public availability does not establish a blanket license for site presentation, agency marks, annotations, forms, or incorporated federal and privately authored standards; downstream redistribution requires separate rights review.",
