Re: Pulsed water meter - what are the wires for ?



I asked them and this is the answere I got:
---
They will be despatching a pulsed output

If the meter is fitted and water flowing through a voltage will be
despatched
Best route is to put a voltmeter across to determine which ones despatch
the
pulse
