Utility Meter Templates

A utility meter, also known as utility metering or a metered utility, is a device used to measure the consumption of various utilities such as electricity, gas, water, or telecommunication services. These meters are crucial for accurately calculating usage and ensuring fair billing for customers.

At times, certain utility services may be exempt from sales tax, and customers can apply for this exemption using specific forms, such as the Form ST-200 (State Form 48843) Utility Sales Tax Exemption Application for Purchase of Metered Utility or Telecommunication Services in Indiana. This form enables eligible customers to save money by exempting them from paying sales tax on their utility purchases.

For those interested in renewable energy initiatives, net-metering programs are available, allowing customers to generate their own electricity and potentially return excess energy to the grid. To participate in net-metering programs, customers must complete appropriate registration forms like the Net-Metering Application Form and the Net-Metering Registration Form in Vermont.

Additionally, customers who have large or small meters installed can provide a Placed in Service Report to verify and document the meter's installation and operation in compliance with regulations in Illinois.
