The Meter School is an annual educational opportunity offering valuable technical training and hands-on work with electric metering equipment.
To ensure an optimal educational experience, participants select their preferred class level—Basic/Intermediate or Advanced.
A Pre-Conference is also held in conjunction with the School, which is an ideal refresher course on basic metering or introductory course for those with little metering experience. For maximum benefit, consider registering for both the Pre-Conference and Meter School.
The Basic/Intermediate class is aimed at personnel with little experience with electric meters. Training will build on the Pre-Conference session, and will include more hands-on training.
The Advanced class will use a combination of methods and tools, including: self-corrected meter exams, 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.
