1. Verify that the meter is properly installed and connected to the electrical system.
2. Check that the meter is accurately measuring and recording energy consumption.
3. Test the communication capabilities of the meter, such as remote reading and data transmission.
4. Ensure that the meter is properly calibrated and functioning within acceptable accuracy limits.
5. Verify that the meter is securely mounted and protected from tampering or damage.
6. Test the display and functionality of the meter, including any digital or analog readouts.
7. Confirm that the meter is properly configured for the specific application and utility requirements.
8. Conduct a visual inspection of the meter and its surroundings for any signs of damage or irregularities.

Initial Tests on an Interval Meter
1. Visual Inspection:
- Check for damage, loose wires, or missing screws.
- Ensure the display is intact and easy to read.
2. Functionality Test:
- Power on the meter and verify that the display illuminates.
- Press all buttons and check if they respond as expected.
- Set the interval and check if the meter records and displays data properly.
3. Accuracy Test:
- Use a calibrated pulse generator or other known signal to inject pulses into the meter.
- Record the displayed count and compare it to the injected pulse count to assess accuracy.
4. Repeatability Test:
- Repeat the accuracy test multiple times at different intervals and pulse frequencies.
- Verify that the meter consistently provides accurate count readings.
5. Latency Test:
- Use a pulse generator to inject a pulse with a known latency.
- Check if the meter records the pulse at the expected time.
6. Response Time Test:
- Inject a series of pulses with varying frequencies.
- Verify that the meter can accurately record and display the pulses without any significant delay or loss of data.
7. Environmental Tolerance Test:
- If applicable, expose the meter to extreme temperatures, humidity, and vibrations.
- Verify that the meter continues to operate within acceptable accuracy and response time tolerances.
8. Communication Test:
- If the meter has communication capabilities, verify that it can connect to and exchange data with the intended devices (e.g., remote host, gateway).
9. Safety Test:
- Ensure that the meter complies with all applicable safety standards and regulations. This may include electrical safety, ground fault protection, and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).
