Regulation 6 Notification of refusal of approval

If a meter examiner concludes that the pattern or construction of the meter is such that any meter of that pattern or construction will not be capable of satisfying the requirement set out in regulation 5(1), he shall notify the person applying for approval accordingly, giving the reasons for his conclusion.

Where a meter examiner reaches the conclusion mentioned in paragraph (1) before he has completed every test which he had considered necessary for the purpose of regulation 5, he shall not be required to carry out the remainder of those tests.
