Drinking Water Distribution
Course Pack: Leak Detection and Metering Optimization
Registers and Specifications
Course Description
This module provides operators with a comprehensive overview of common water-meter types, their flow-application considerations, and calibration expectations. Learners learn how meter performance, AMR/AMI technologies, and preventive-maintenance practices influence accuracy and operational efficiency. Case examples reinforce how proper meter selection and maintenance support revenue protection and system performance.
