Circumstance

All meters that are registered to supply points in the market, or are related to non-market meters, must be read on a regular basis. These reads must then be submitted to CMOS.

Customer touchpoint

Cyclical reads are important for calculating accurate bills based on volumetric consumption and may require access to a customer’s premises. The customer can also provide reads to their retailer, which they will then submit to CMOS.

Obligations under the codes

The retailer is responsible for arranging cyclical meter reads and submitting these to the market operator (MOSL). This is described in further detail in CSD 0202 (Meter read submission: process).
