I've had a 32mm mdpe water pipe put in from my house to the meter which is inside the boundary of my house .How do I join it to the meter ?
 
The boundary meter is their responsibility
 
As Riley said, it doesn't matter where the meter is, it's the water authorities responsibility.
 
They usually want to ensure that it’s installed correctly and to regs
 
Nope I’ve done loads of these and they’ve always made the final connection. Call them and check
 
Mate I’m trying to save you grief in the long term. They may well say crack on but I’d hate for you to contaminate the mains water and end up banged up
 
I’ve connected loads of mains to the back end of the water meter as the local supplier here is not interested, it’s normally a 3/4 female fitting sometimes it’s a 1/2” but that was older ones.
 
I’m not saying he can’t. I’m telling him to check first to avoid any unnecessary legal action or worse in the future
 
Well that’s all good if your qualified but if your not the water board will want to check you’ve installed it correctly and it’s not contaminating there supply eg farmers etc
 
And to check if it's been upsized from the original and likely to cause problems with other supplies in the area.

Did someone mention 32mm?
