The Meter School is an annual educational opportunity for those who work with or on meters.
With the variety of metering equipment in the field—and to ensure an optimal educational experience for participants—we offer the choice of a Basic/Intermediate or Advanced class.
In addition, we offer a Basic Metering Pre-Conference which is an ideal introductory or refresher course. For maximum benefit, consider registering for both the Pre-Conference and one of the Meter School classes.
The Basic/Intermediate class is aimed at electric personnel with little experience with electric meters. This training will build on the Pre-Conference session, and will include more hands-on training.
The Advanced class will use a combination of self-corrected meter exam, interactive classroom and hands-on training to present and reinforce the instruction.
The flexibility of this class allows participants to progress at a pace that fits their motivation and abilities.
(Concurrent sessions—participants must register for either the Basic/Intermediate or Advanced class.)
