DZ5259 A1, Gas measurement Amendment 1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In order to cite NZS 5259:2004 in the revision of the Gas Regulations 1993, Table 3 of NZS 5259 has been amended to conform to the accuracy of conversion requirements given in the current regulation 9. Some changes have been made to the energy conversion section to clarify accuracy requirements, and the competency requirements have been updated. A small number of technical corrections have also been included in this amendment. Two new appendices have been introduced: a new Appendix B which provides guidance for low pressure accuracy of turbine meters calibrated at high pressure and Appendix N to provide guidance for time-stamped data.
