How to install or replace a utility meter in Uzbekistan

Water, gas or electricity meter: where should you start?

Ask your utility provider what it requires before you buy or arrange installation. Once the work is done, check that the meter is registered for billing. Choose your meter type to jump to the relevant section.

Three steps from application to registration

From application to registration. Check the process: Contact your utility provider. Agree on the work: Confirm the model and installer. Check registration: Check the serial number and first readingsFrom application to registration1Check the processContact your utility provider2Agree on the workConfirm the model and installer3Check registrationCheck the serial number and first readings
  1. Identify what you need

    A first installation at a new property, a replacement and a meter accuracy check are different procedures. For a new connection, start by checking the connection requirements. For a replacement, tell the utility why you need it and arrange removal of the old meter before work begins.

  2. Agree on the model and installer

    Ask the utility whether the meter is suitable for the property and who is allowed to carry out the work. Keep the meter documentation. Do not remove a utility seal yourself.

  3. Check the paperwork

    Ask the utility who handles sealing and registration. Check the serial number and initial readings on the record, get a copy or electronic confirmation, and verify that the meter is linked to your utility account.

💧 Water meter

Contact your cold or hot water supplier. Check whether the meter is rated for the right water temperature and confirm the diameter, installation length and permitted orientation. If the old meter is sealed, arrange its removal and recording of its readings first.

🔥 Gas meter

Contact your gas utility. Confirm the model, required flow capacity and who can do the work. Do not alter the gas pipe or remove the meter yourself.

⚡ Electricity meter

Contact your electricity distribution utility. Confirm who supplies the meter, how many phases you need and whether the model suits the metering arrangement. Do not open a sealed panel or connect the meter yourself.

Where to apply

On my.gov.uz, look up the service by utility type and the action you need: installation, removal, verification or sealing. Before applying, check whether the service covers your property and review the listed documents, fee and timeframe. If it does not cover your case, contact the utility directly.

❓ Frequently asked questions

Select a question to see the answer ↓

Should I buy a meter before contacting the utility?

First check who supplies the meter and which models are suitable for your property. This helps you avoid buying a meter that cannot be registered for billing.

What should I do if my old meter is sealed?

Arrange removal with the utility before work starts. Make sure the readings and the condition of the seal are recorded as part of that process.

Who should I contact for a first connection?

Start with the relevant utility provider. It can tell you which connection procedure applies to your address.

How does verification differ from replacement?

Verification checks the accuracy of the existing meter. Replacement means fitting a different meter and registering it for billing.

Does installation mean the new meter is ready for billing?

Check that the meter has been registered and linked to your utility account. Installation alone does not confirm either step.

How can I tell the serial number from the meter reading?

The serial number identifies the meter and is printed on the casing or in its documentation. The meter reading is the consumption figure shown on the dial or display.

What should I check once the paperwork is complete?

Check the serial number, starting readings and utility account linkage. Keep the installation record or electronic confirmation.

Where can I check the timeframe and cost?

Check the listing for your chosen service on my.gov.uz or ask the utility. Check installation and sealing terms separately.
