Contractors Begin Installing Test
Meters for AMI Project
Contractors for the City of Plainview have begun
installing test meters for the automatic water meter
project in several locations around the City this week.
The test meters will provide an opportunity for the
contractors to review installation conditions, test the
meter transmission information and ensure the
information integrates with all required software
programs.
Once the test meter installation is complete, contractors
will begin installing meters across Plainview; every
residential meter will be replaced. The City will notify
customers via website, local media, social media and
posters when the project begins.
The AMI Project (Advanced Metering Infrastructure) Project Upgrade will allow residents
access to more frequent and detailed information about water usage, better control of
resident water usage and monthly bills. The project includes a water meter, a meter box
and a low-powered communication device/radio. The meter will continuously record water
usage and transmit the read through a secure network several times a day to the meter
data management software located in the cloud.
