4.0 Revision

4.1 The purpose of revision 2 was to clarify and reflect the change in references from Measurement Canada provisional specification PS-E-11 to specification S-EG-01. Revision 2 amends the scope to include meters that have been conditionally and unconditionally qualified to receive a 10 year initial reverification period, and meters that no longer qualify for a lengthened initial reverification period.

4.2 The purpose of revision 3 was to add AE-1320 to table 1 and include additional configurations for AE-1611 in table  2.

4.3 The purpose of revision 4 was to add additional ratings and or configurations for AE-1611 and AE-0764 in table 2.

4.4 The purpose of revision 5 was to add additional ratings and or configurations for the meters under AE-1517 and AE-1579 in table 2. Also, meters under AE-1145 are included in table 3 to indicate a suspension of the lengthened initial reverification period until sampling pursuant to S-S-05 is completed.

4.5 The purpose of revision 6 was to add AE-1356 to table 1.

4.6 The purpose of revision 7 is to add AE-1434 to table 1.

4.7 The purpose of revision 8 is to add additional ratings and configuration for AE 1466 and AE-1168. Revision 8 has also been revised to add the following to table 1 and 2:

  • Table 1: AE-1466 and AE 1145
  • Table 2: AE-1148, AE-1652, AE-1631 and AE-1822
