What does a utility meter auditor do?

A Utility Meter Auditor is responsible for inspecting, verifying, and recording the readings of utility meters, such as those for electricity, gas, or water. Their main goal is to ensure that meters are functioning properly and that the usage data is accurate for billing purposes. They may also identify meter tampering, report irregularities, and recommend repairs or replacements when necessary. Utility Meter Auditors often work for utility companies, government agencies, or third-party auditing firms to help reduce losses and ensure fair billing.
