Should any consumer doubt the correctness of the meter registration, the consumer may have the meter tested by making written application to the town and by making a deposit in accordance with the following table:

If, in such test, the meter is found to over register in excess of 4%, allowance shall be made by the town to the consumer according to such error and covering a period not to exceed the prior billing and the current consumption to date of removal of the meter. If the meter is found to over register in excess of 4%, all the expense incurred in the meter removal and test shall be borne by the town, and the deposit shall be refunded. If, however, the meter is found to register an amount less than 104 percent the deposit shall be accepted by the town in payment of the expense of such removal and test. (1978 Code, § 13-107)
