Commercial gas

[MOSSEP]

Can anyone in here cap off commercial gas meter on the supply side or is it a job for transco? I'm on a site in London and the client wants it taken out and capped off after the supply isolator. The pipe size is 2" - 3".

I'd wouldn't personally do it, but I'm not sure if we would be allowed to or not I donut it though.

Id id wait for croppie, he's commercial, but he likes to keep it quiet

No you can't. Cap it downstream and make the tight bugger get Transco in. It's their property after all!

I thought that might be the case, Transco want £1400 to remove it though! Oh well, at least it isnt my meter.

Damage meter report smell, tranny will just make d
Safe ( if you snap test nipple, they hopefully won't have a spare meter in van and will cap at ecv. Meter might get stolen?

Unless it's a rotary meter in which case it's easier to keep deliberately tripping the slamshut and calling them out. After all, you're not allowed to reset it yourself.
