How To Check Your Commercial Gas Meter Or MPRN Status

Your Meter Point Reference Number (MPRN) tells you whether your commercial gas supply is ready for a live connection or needs work first. Here's what each status means.

Live

Your meter is active and ready to use.

Next Step

You can switch business gas supplier or request a brand new commercial gas meter today.

Disconnected

Your service cable has been removed. This needs new site works, not just a meter fit.

Next Step

Contact your local Distribution Network Operator (DNO) to arrange a new gas connection before installation.

Removed

The gas meter has been completely removed from site.

Next Step

You'll need a Live/Dead check and possibly a GT1 survey before a new commercial gas meter can be fitted.

Commercial Gas Meter Installation, Explained

The questions we're asked most before booking a commercial gas meter installation.

Do I need a new commercial gas meter if I'm moving into new business premises?

If the unit has been empty, is a new-build, or the previous meter was removed, you'll need one fitted before gas can be supplied. This is also common after a refurbishment where the gas supply was disconnected.

Can I get a free commercial gas meter installed?

Yes, in most cases installation is free when you switch your business gas supply to one of our partner suppliers. Standalone installs outside of a switch may carry a fee.

Who installs business gas meters?

An accredited Meter Operator, or sometimes your energy supplier directly. For larger connections, your local Distribution Network Operator (DNO) may need to carry out groundworks first.

Do I need a smart gas meter for my business?

It isn't compulsory, but a smart meter removes estimated billing and gives you accurate, real-time consumption data, useful for spotting waste and controlling costs.

How long does commercial gas meter installation take?

Most commercial jobs are completed within 2 weeks of booking, depending on your site and supplier.

Who owns the gas meter once it's fitted?

The meter stays the property of the Meter Operator, not your business. You're responsible for keeping the meter position clear and accessible, not the hardware itself.
