Measurement Canada Compliance Software for Canadian Electric Utilities
TESCO Meter Manager Supports S-S-06 Meter Reverification, Statistical Sampling, and Multi-Vendor Test Consoles
Canadian electric utilities must maintain accurate revenue meters under Measurement Canada requirements established through the Electricity and Gas Inspection Act and related regulations.
For utilities managing large populations of in-service electricity meters, Measurement Canada S-S-06 compliance sampling provides an efficient alternative to testing every meter individually. However, compliance requires accurate management of meter lots, random sampling, measurement uncertainty, conformity classification, reverification periods, and audit documentation.
TESCO Meter Manager™ is meter shop management software designed to help Canadian utilities and Authorized Service Providers manage Measurement Canada reverification programs through automated S-S-06 workflows.
The platform supports meter lot management, sample selection, uncertainty calculations, C1/C2 classification, seal-period extensions, and reverification date tracking while integrating with TESCO, PMT™, and WECO™ test consoles.
Built for Measurement Canada S-S-06 Compliance
What Is S-S-06 Compliance?
Measurement Canada S-S-06 defines the requirements for compliance sampling of electricity meters in service. It allows utilities to evaluate qualified meter populations through statistical sampling instead of performing 100% reverification.
A compliant program requires:
- Homogeneous meter lots
- Random, traceable sample selection
- Accurate measurement uncertainty calculations
- Meter conformity evaluation
- Seal extension and reverification management
- Complete audit records
TESCO Meter Manager helps utilities manage these requirements through consistent, automated workflows.
Key Compliance Capabilities
Meter Lots and Statistical Sampling
TESCO Meter Manager helps utilities create and maintain qualified meter lots by tracking:
- Manufacturer and model
- Voltage and current ratings
- Configuration and firmware
- Service status
- Seal year information
The system supports random sample generation, sample documentation, certificates, and meter-level traceability for regulatory review.
Testing, Uncertainty, and Classification
The platform incorporates test equipment and meter model uncertainty into evaluation workflows and automates:
- C1 and C2 conformity classification
- Sample calculations
- Compliance reporting
This helps utilities apply consistent and defensible meter accuracy evaluations.
Reverification and Seal Management
TESCO Meter Manager automates:
- Seal-period extension calculations
- Expiry dates
- Reverification due dates
- Lot compliance history
Utilities gain a centralized view of their meter compliance lifecycle.
Multi-Vendor Test Console Support
Many utilities rely on existing meter testing equipment from multiple vendors. TESCO Meter Manager supports:
- TESCO test boards and stations
- PMT calibration consoles
- WECO (Radian Research) test boards
This enables utilities to improve compliance workflows without replacing proven test infrastructure.
Benefits include:
- Protection of existing equipment investments
- Consistent processes across meter shops
- Reduced hardware replacement requirements
- Greater flexibility for future equipment decisions

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Measurement Canada meter reverification?
Meter reverification confirms that electricity meters used for billing continue to meet Measurement Canada accuracy requirements.
Why do utilities use S-S-06 sampling?
S-S-06 allows utilities with large, qualified meter populations to demonstrate compliance through statistical sampling rather than testing every meter.
Can TESCO Meter Manager work with existing test equipment?
Yes. TESCO Meter Manager supports TESCO, PMT, and WECO test consoles, allowing utilities to maintain existing testing investments.
