Is that what that green and yellow lead is with the clips either end? I use it to hang my towels on to dry j the back of the van lol

My mate got suspended from BG for allowing his apprentice to finish off soldering a joint on the meter union many years ago while the meter was disconnected but right under the pipe. Blew the lad about 20 yards and burnt all his face and chest. It was an industrial meter and still on lead it was that long ago, but when I did my apprenticeship with him he was paranoid so I always use a cap inside or remove and cover if working within a couple of metres.

I either use compression ISO valve and then solder after or put a cap in the meter. Sometimes.

Always remove if working within a couple of mts of the meter..

once you find a main with some voltage on it, temp cont bonds seem a good idea.

i never cap the meter, whats the point with speedfit?

Always remove. Takes 2 mins. No fuss
