Meter seals are security locks or seals used to determine whether meters have been tampered with from the outside. They are usually made of durable materials such as plastic, metal or lead and are placed in critical areas on the meter. Here are the functions and benefits of meter seals:
 
Preventing Unauthorized Interventions
 
Meter seals are used to prevent unauthorized access to meters. If there is a seal on a meter, it is guaranteed that the meter has not been tampered with or tampered with.
 
Preventing Illegal Use
 
Meter Seals help prevent the illegal use of resources such as energy or water. Illegal use is usually carried out by manipulating meters. Security Seals help detect such attempts.
 
Ensuring Correct Billing
 
They ensure that meters are working correctly. In cases where the seals are not broken, the data measured by the meters is assumed to be correct and billing is made accordingly. This ensures that the rights of both providers and consumers are protected.
 
Legal and Regulatory Requirements
 
Many countries and energy providers require meter seals as a legal requirement. An intact seal indicates that the meter is in legally acceptable condition.
 
Easy to Detect
Seals are designed to be easily detectable if tampering or fraud has occurred. If the seal is broken or removed, it is obvious, which is important for the safety and accuracy of the meter.
Meter seals play a critical role in ensuring the safety and accuracy of meters. They are an important tool for both users and energy providers to prevent fraudulent use, ensure accurate metering and meet legal requirements.
