ABSTRACT:
A setter for a water meter comprises a pair of L-shaped pipes which are positioned in reversed relationship with their horizontal legs connected between a water supply line and a water distribution line. The horizontal legs are clamped in side by side relationship to vary the distance between the vertical legs. Adjustment of the clamp permits the setter to accept meters of different size. All joints are threaded, thereby avoiding the use of solder and the consequent danger of lead contamination.
