5.6 Protection for Gas Meters
Gas meter (and gas meter box) location safety is the primary consideration and will be
enforced prior to any gas meter protection options being considered. Always locate your gas
meter box away from trafc areas.
If the gas meter or box is not situated in a protective recess and there is likelihood of vehicular
damage (e.g., adjacent to a driveway), then the gas meter box must be protected by bollards
or alternative methods as shown in Figure 30 and Figure 31 below.
Note: The denition of adequate protection for gas meter installations is determined by AGA
in all instances.
Caution should be exercised when installing bollards near existing underground utilities.
Always call Dial Before You Dig (phone 1100) prior to any excavation works.
