gas meter bracket

[ambrosia]

does anyone know what the pieces of lead on the gas meter bracket which hold the meter unions in place are called and where to get them

I have a customer who wants a smart meter installed, however when the guy from Evo came he refused to touch her current meter and install the new one as these were missing.
All pretty pathetic but i said i would try and help her out

The smart meter installer is talking thorugh his discharge pipe..

It don't matter how bad the current meter install is the meter fitter has to bring it up to standard. I would assume the fitter took and look and didn't want to change it because it was a hard job, some fitters can't solder very well so try and get out of changes that require pipe work alterations.

Remember the meter and bracket belong to the energy company.

So does that mean that I have to call the energy company to fit a bracket to the meter I encountered today?
It's sitting on the floor in the meter cupboard just inside the front door. Continuity and anaconda OK - just no bracket or security ties present.
