TESCO Metering

BRISTOL, PATESCO has unveiled the T3 Turbo Meter Tester, a cutting-edge solution designed to simplify and enhance meter testing for utilities. This lightweight, portable device allows technicians to perform precise tests on self-contained meters directly in the field, eliminating the reliance on heavy equipment, external load sources, and lab-based verification. Paired with the TESCO 6330 Meter Site Analyzer, the tools provide a comprehensive solution for full-site diagnostics and transformer-rated meter testing.

“For years, utilities have struggled with time-consuming, inefficient meter testing processes, forcing technicians to carry heavy equipment, rely on lab testing, or deal with inconsistent customer load conditions,” said Tom Lawton, President & CEO of TESCO. “The T3 Turbo Meter Tester changes the game by making field testing faster, safer, and more reliable than ever. When paired with the 6330 Meter Site Analyzer, these two tools ensure technicians can handle any testing scenario…without ever needing to leave the job site.”
