W-W-W'- - Wj. , V AN ELECTRIC METER TALK It is customary for electricity users to question the accuracy of meters and to make many objections to their use. The most common ones are that the elec tric companies have some way of making the meter run faster than the amount of current that passes through it, or that the meter continues to run whether current is being consumed or not. Of course any such ideas are nonsensical and are founded on ignorance of the electrical business of which the general public probably knows less than of any other industry. As a matter of fact an electric nujter is one of the most accurate pieces of mechanism ever invented, is thor oughly tested before it leaves the factory and also before being placed in position by the company using it. Occassional one of these wonderful little "juice" registers goes wrong, but then, nothing made by mankind or man himself, to say nothing of even lovely woman, ever attaing absolute perfection. Nov a meter simply consumes and registers the entire amount of current used for lighting or power passing through it and if it does go wrong either runs slower or stops. The reason a meter will run for a minute or so after the cur rent is turned off is because there is a disk in it containing a magnet that must find the center of attraction before stopping and the disk turns either forward or back until this point is reached. If it turns backward the registration is nothing and it forward so small as to be scarcely noticable. Pi'obably the greatest dissatisfaction we have to contend with comes from the tact that very few consumers are able to take a reading from their meter ac curately, and many cannot take a reading at all. For this reason we have just, mailed a little booklet to all of our patrons, and will be pleased to supply anyone' who has not received one, telling in the simplest language how you may learn to road your meter, all about its operation and other information of value to the electricity user. It is difficult for most consumers to understand why a meter is not always installed with the dial at zero, or in other words registering nothing. When a new meter is installed it is set at zero, but meters that have been put into ser- ice, whether in use or idle, are never set back to the starting point as the ordi nary consumer would not use the entire registration of 10,000 kilowatt hours in ten years, and the work of re-setting 800 to 1,000 meters every time they are changed is a waste of time and therefore would be an added expense to the con sumer. A meter may be taken from one patron today registering 1,000, we will m lor illustration, and installed with another one, registering the same figures, lhe reading is taken at 1,000 when it is installed ancf at the end of the month hen the reading is again taken the 1,000 is simply deducted from the amount 01 CUlTVnt Consumed.
