The procedure for filling out an inspection report to determine the presence (absence) of the technical feasibility of installing individual, common (apartment), collective (common house) metering devices. Rostelecom Internet connection options in a private house

Living in a private home may impose some restrictions on communication with the World Wide Web, that is, on connecting to the Internet. We will consider options for bringing the Internet to a private house from Rostelecom, one of the largest Russian communication service providers.

At the moment, you can connect the Internet from Rostelecom to a private house in one of the following ways:

  • using the "technical reserve" of the home phone;
  • by "optics" - optical communication line;
  • connect through a fixed point of wireless communication via Wi-Fi;
  • via mobile or satellite connection.

Satellite Internet services for a private home, which are especially in demand in remote settlements, are currently not provided by PJSC Rostelecom itself. One of its subsidiaries, RTComm, operates in this niche. It is advisable to resort to this connection method only in cases where other methods are much more expensive than the cost of equipment for satellite communications - it is about 30,000 rubles, although there are cheaper promotions.

Let's figure out how to conduct Internet from Rostelecom to a private house.

PON (optical fiber)

Optical fiber is one of the best ways to bring Internet from Rostelecom to a private house. Technically, the method is data encoding with a light flux, which can transmit large amounts of information at very high speeds - up to 1 Gbps.

The optical cable is not connected directly to the user's computer. You will need a special prefix-decoder that "switches" the connection to a regular twisted pair (Ethernet cable). It is through it that the connection to the Internet is made either directly by a PC or a home router.

How much does it cost to run fiber from Rostelecom to the house? By itself, the price of an optical cable is high and installation is difficult. Special equipment is required for cutting and splicing cables, which cannot but affect the cost of fiber optic connection. The ability to stretch fiber to a private house at Rostelecom directly depends on the distance to the nearest stationary optical router. Ultimately, the price also depends on the same distance. But the quality of communication will be impeccable.

ADSL (telephone line)

How to connect the Internet in a private house using a telephone if the budget does not allow using the technology described above? A good option is ADSL technology, which was used in the "zero" years and still has not lost its feasibility.

To do this, you need to bring a phone from Rostelecom to the house. I mean stationary. Communication using ADSL technology occurs over a telephone cable, while the telephone line itself is not busy. It's all about the frequency difference - a telephone conversation is conducted at low frequencies, an Internet connection is carried out at high frequencies. You will have to purchase a frequency splitter - a splitter (cost about 200-300 r) and an ADSL router, which can also be a Wi-Fi router at the same time. It is better to purchase the latter from the provider company itself, otherwise you will have to tinker with the settings. Its cost, depending on the brand, is 2-3 thousand rubles. Splitter may be included.

The Internet brought into the house using this technology can deliver speeds up to 24 Mbps. In practice, usually less, 8-10 Mbps. It depends on the fact that the speed depends on the length of the telephone line and its quality, as well as the capabilities of the operator himself. The Internet can come into the house through wires laid in the 60s, but be prepared for frequent communication problems, especially in the rain.
However, with frequent complaints, the provider's employees quickly eliminate problem areas on the line, and communication is improving.

WiFi

Rostelecom provides the private sector (villages with a population of up to 500 people) with wireless Internet by installing Wi-Fi routers there. Communication is available on any device that can connect to a Wi-Fi network. This is done under the government's "Digital Divide Bridging Program", so currently such a connection is free, but the speed is limited to 10 Mbps, sometimes less. The list of sites that can be accessed is limited to 2,000 different government portals.

Using wireless Internet technology, Rostelecom also connects a separate house, but this is already a paid service. There are no restrictions on sites, except for those established by law. It is called "Internet at home", an application for it can be left on the official website of the company.

Mobile Internet

Mobile Internet from Rostelecom for a private home may be a good option for people who use mainly tablets and / or smartphones. Not so long ago, this company joined the ranks of providers providing 3G communication services. Rostelecom offers users a number of tariffs, from which you can choose any one you like - to surf the Internet all day or to connect at home periodically to check mail. The amount of traffic provided is from 70 Mb to 25 Gb per month - each according to his needs.

Service cost

The price of connection and the price of use are two different things. It is impossible to say for sure how much it costs to install the Internet in a private house. The cost of connection is determined individually in each specific case. It depends on many factors, primarily on the location of your home and on the chosen connection method.

The tariff for ADSL-Internet is one - 349 r / month (the rate may change over time). The main direction of development is optical fiber. The price of "optical" Internet at Rostelecom for the home depends on the chosen speed - from 99 r / month for the "minimum" to 890 r / month for unlimited at a speed of 200 Mbps. Additional services are connected for a fee - parental control, antivirus, etc.

How to apply and join?

An application for connecting the Internet, as well as other communication services, is easiest to issue on the official portal of the provider. Enough:

  1. Select a region from the list.
  2. Go to the "Internet" subsection.
  3. Check out the options and click on the one you like best.

The system will display an online application dialog. It must be filled in, indicating your contacts, address and full name, and click the "Connect" button. After some time, the manager of the company will call you.
If for some reason this method is not convenient for you, you can leave a request for connection at any office of the company.

"Housing and communal services: accounting and taxation", 2012, N 9

Together with the new Rules for the provision of public services, from 09/01/2012 another regulatory act came into force - Order of the Ministry of Regional Development of Russia dated 12/29/2011 N 627 "On approval of the criteria for the presence (absence) of the technical feasibility of installing an individual, common (apartment), collective (common house) metering devices, as well as the form of an inspection report to establish the presence (absence) of the technical feasibility of installing such metering devices and the Procedure for filling it out "(hereinafter - Order N 627). What are the nuances of the practical application of this document? In what cases is it necessary to identify the technical feasibility and draw up an act?

About the normative document itself

Order N 627 consists of three parts. The first part (Appendix 1) contains the Criteria for the presence (absence) of the technical feasibility of installing meters. These Criteria have been developed to determine the possibility of using metering devices when calculating utility bills. This is a very important point. It turns out that physically meters can be installed in any case, but their readings can be taken into account when paying for utilities only if the criteria under consideration are met.

Criteria for the technical feasibility of installing a meter

The first criterion (absolute) is named in paragraph 5 of Appendix 1 to Order N 627. The technical possibility of installing metering devices is available in MKD, in respect of which the Law on Energy Saving<1>a requirement was established to equip them on the date of commissioning with certain types of metering devices for energy resources. Here you need to refer to paragraph 7 of Art. 13 of the Law on Energy Saving, which establishes the following:

  • MKD put into operation after 11/27/2009, on the date of their commissioning, must be equipped with general house metering devices (GPU) for water, heat and electricity and individual metering devices (IPU) for water and electricity (with reference to paragraph 5 of the same articles);
  • MABs put into operation after 27.11.2009, on the date of their commissioning, must be equipped with natural gas ISP (with reference to clause 5.1 of the same article);
  • MKD, put into operation from 01.01.2012 after construction or reconstruction, must be additionally equipped with thermal energy ISP;
  • MKD, put into operation from 01/01/2012 after a major overhaul, must be equipped with thermal energy ISP if it is technically possible to install them.
<1>Federal Law No. 261-FZ of November 23, 2009 "On Energy Saving and Improving Energy Efficiency and on Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation".

In other words, in all houses put into operation after construction<2>after 11/27/2009, it is technically possible to install a water, heat and electric power plant and a water, natural gas and electricity plant, and after 01/01/2012 - also a heat plant. In fact, the legislator actually obliged developers to install these metering devices, which means that the owners of the premises should not need the criteria in question, because they should not be concerned about installing meters.

<2>Despite the fact that in paragraph 7 of Art. 13 of the Law on Energy Saving refers to the commissioning after construction, reconstruction and overhaul, we believe that here we should keep in mind the commissioning of only newly built houses. With reconstruction and repair - a completely different story.

All other criteria do not affect the category of houses discussed above. This means that the remaining criteria apply to MFBs built before 11/27/2009. The simplest criterion concerns the possibility of installing an IPU of thermal energy in an MKD room: this is not possible if, according to the design characteristics of the MKD, it has a vertical wiring of in-house engineering systems (HIS) heating. It is noteworthy that paragraph 3 of Appendix 1 to Order N 627 refers to the application of this criterion to all houses, except for those indicated in paragraph 5. Recall that in paragraph 7 of Art. 13 of the Law on Energy Saving specifies that houses put into operation after reconstruction from 01/01/2012 must be equipped with thermal energy ISP. From this we can draw the following conclusion: even if, according to the design characteristics of an MKD, put into operation before 11/27/2009, it has a vertical distribution of HIS heating, such a house, being subjected to reconstruction (with a completion date after 01/01/2012), must be equipped with an IPU of heat. It turns out that the reconstruction of houses, which is completed after 01/01/2012, should include the replacement of the vertical distribution of HIS heating with a horizontal one. It can be recalled here that the reconstruction of an MKD is a serious procedure, which is regulated by the Urban Planning Code and requires at least a building permit.

Note. Failure to comply with the requirements of energy efficiency in the design, construction, reconstruction, overhaul of buildings, structures, structures, the requirements for their equipment with metering devices for the energy resources used is recognized as an administrative offense under paragraph 3 of Art. 9.16 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.

At the same time, the commissioning of an MKD in the same period after a major overhaul does not make the installation of an ISP for heat energy mandatory if there is no technical possibility. Indeed, the overhaul is not associated with a change in the design characteristics of MKD.

Paragraph 2 of Annex 1 to Order N 627 establishes criteria that are relevant for all houses built before 11/27/2009 and identified during the survey. These criteria are valid in relation to the GTC and ITC of all types of energy resources. To conclude that it is not technically possible to install a meter in an MKD (room), it is sufficient to identify at least one of the following circumstances:

  • installation of a metering device of the appropriate type according to the design characteristics of MKD (premises) is impossible without reconstruction, overhaul of existing VIS (in-house equipment) and (or) without the creation of new VIS (in-house equipment);
  • when installing a metering device of the corresponding type, it is impossible to ensure compliance with the mandatory metrological and technical requirements for the metering device of the corresponding type, including the place and procedure for its installation, imposed in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation on ensuring the uniformity of measurements and technical regulation;
  • in the place where the metering device of the corresponding type is to be installed, it is impossible to ensure compliance with the mandatory requirements for the operating conditions of the metering device of the corresponding type, which are necessary for its proper functioning, in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation on ensuring the uniformity of measurements and technical regulation, which are necessary for its proper functioning, including for the technical condition and (or) mode of operation of the VIS (in-house equipment), temperature conditions, humidity, electromagnetic interference, flooding of premises, and (or) it is impossible to provide access for taking readings of a meter of the appropriate type, its maintenance, replacement.

If, during the survey of the technical feasibility of installing metering devices, the absence of these circumstances is established (and according to the IPU of heat energy, there is also the absence of vertical wiring of the VIS), then there is a corresponding possibility.

Survey report

Paragraph 6 of Appendix 1 to Order N 627 states that the results of a survey of the technical feasibility of installing a metering device are indicated in the relevant act. The form of the act is given in Appendix 2, and the procedure for filling it out is in Appendix 3. Let's pay attention to some nuances.

Firstly, the survey is carried out by specialists of a legal entity or an individual entrepreneur, and not by officials of any authority.

Secondly, the survey may be attended by both the owners of the premises in the MKD or their representatives (and this is necessary if an application for the installation of an ISP is submitted), and representatives of the organization (IE) responsible for the maintenance of the common property in the MKD (taking into account the fact that the OPU usually installed at the edge of networks, the intended installation site of the OPU must be accessed, which such organizations can give), as well as other persons. It is important that the explanation to column 3 of the survey act makes it clear that all these persons may not be present during the survey.

Thirdly, the act indicates the presence or absence of the technical feasibility of installing a particular type of meter. In the second case, a specific criterion for the absence of such a possibility should be named.

Fourth, it is allowed that those present at the examination may have a dissenting opinion, obviously different from the opinion of the person conducting the examination. This point of view should also be recorded in the act.

Fifthly, a copy of the act is issued to each person who was present at the examination.

Place and role of the act in the system of legal regulation

In connection with the publication of Order N 627, a lot of publications appeared in the press with the following content: "The owners of the premises are not in all cases obliged to install metering devices for communal resources, the lack of appropriate technical capability exempts them from such a duty." Such comments look as if the owner of the premises in the MKD is against the installation of metering devices with all his might, and the lack of technical capability gives him a chance to avoid this.

Meanwhile, if we consider the place of Order No. 627 in the system of legislation on energy saving, as well as housing legislation, the situation appears in a somewhat different light.

First, given the state's course towards widespread "appliance", it must be remembered that consumption standards, one way or another determining the amount of utility bills in the absence of metering devices, should be set in such a way as to stimulate the installation of meters. And this is a more effective measure compared to a strict order to install meters by a certain date in the absence of any sanctions for non-performance and the prospect of compulsory payment of the costs of their installation by a third party. This means that, other things being equal, the owner of the premises should be interested in installing metering devices. But this directly applies only to the IPU. Despite the fact that a similar rule applies to the standards for the consumption of utilities for general house needs, the actual consumption for general house needs (and even more so the volume of resource losses in the VIS) is beyond the control of each individual owner of the premises, and management companies are not interested in reducing real consumption (in exclusion of unreasonable, irrational and non-contractual consumption).

Secondly, it seems that RNOs are primarily interested in installing metering devices (mainly operating systems, and in their absence, also IPUs). The ratio of standards and volumes of real consumption may fluctuate, and it is possible to receive payment for the supplied communal resource in full only if there is an operating facility in the house. Taking into account the new procedure for calculating the volume of the resource supplied to the MKD, the management companies no longer bear the burden of paying for the so-called imbalance (if the house has an ISP, but no OPU). Therefore, the legislator imposed the obligation to forcibly install metering devices (GPU and IPU) on the most interested person. We will keep these two conclusions in mind in what follows.

But let's get back to the criteria for the technical possibility of installing meters in the system of current legislation.

Obligation of owners to install metering devices

We emphasize that the Law on Energy Saving only provides for the obligation of owners of premises in MKD to install meters<3>and contains no indication of exemption from this obligation in the absence of technical feasibility. An exception applies to the thermal energy ISP, which should be installed after the commissioning of the MKD after a major overhaul (after 01/01/2012) only if it is technically possible. Indeed, let us recall clause 2 of Appendix 1 to Order N 627: circumstances indicating a lack of technical capability are quite surmountable. So, after reconstruction, overhaul or the creation of new VIS and in-house equipment, a metering device can be installed. Overhaul of the common property in the MKD can make it possible to comply with the mandatory requirements for the operating conditions of the device at the place of its installation (temperature conditions, humidity in technical basements, etc.). In other words, having set out to fulfill their obligation to install meters, the owners of the premises may not refer to the lack of technical capability, but change the state of the in-house equipment, VIS and, in general, common property so that the possibility of installing metering devices appears. That is why the presence or absence of technical capability is determined on a specific date of the survey.

<3>Until 01.07.2012 - IPU of water, heat and electricity, IPU of water, electricity, until 01.01.2015 - IPU of natural gas. There is no obligation to install a thermal energy ISP by any date and is associated only with the reconstruction after 01.01.2012 (then the installation of a thermal energy IPU is mandatory) and overhaul of the MKD (then the thermal energy IPU is installed if it is technically possible).

But then why was Order No. 627 adopted at all?

Agreement on the installation of a metering device

Let us turn to paragraph 9 of Art. 13 of the Law on Energy Saving, which says that from 01.07.2010 RNO<4>are obliged to carry out activities for the installation, replacement, operation of metering devices for the used energy resources, the supply of which or the transfer of which they carry out. The RSO is not entitled to refuse the persons who applied to them to conclude an agreement. Although the price of such an agreement is determined by agreement of the parties, the contract must provide for a five-year installment plan (if the party to the contract is the owner of the premises in the MKD or the person responsible for the maintenance of the MKD), which can be especially beneficial for potential customers.

<4>More precisely, organizations that supply water, natural gas, heat and electricity or their transmission and whose engineering and technical support networks are directly connected to the networks that are part of the engineering and technical equipment of facilities to be equipped with metering devices used energy resources.

The procedure for concluding and the essential terms of such an agreement are approved by Order of the Ministry of Energy of Russia dated April 7, 2010 N 149 (effective from July 18, 2010) (hereinafter referred to as the Procedure). The document emphasizes that the contract is public. This means that the RSO's refusal to conclude this agreement, if it is possible to provide the consumer with the relevant services, perform the relevant work for him, is not allowed (clause 3 of article 426 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation). Here we come to the technical feasibility of installing metering devices. After receiving an application from the customer, the RSO must inspect the facility in order to check whether it is technically possible to install, replace and (or) operate the meter. If it is technically possible to perform the work specified in the application, the contractor sends a draft contract signed on its part, as well as technical conditions in case of installation of a metering device. Further, in clause 11 of the Procedure it is explained: unless otherwise provided by federal laws, other regulatory legal acts of the Russian Federation, regulatory legal acts of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, agreement of the parties to the contract, the technical specifications must contain a list of measures taken by the customer for the technical preparation of the object for installation (replacement) metering device. Accordingly, in the absence of technical feasibility, RSO sends a refusal to conclude a contract to the customer. It is important to understand three things:

  • The procedure does not contain references to the fact that the criteria for the availability of technical feasibility should be determined by the authorized authority;
  • The procedure entered into force on 07/18/2010, and Order No. 627 - only on 09/01/2012;
  • surmountable obstacles to the installation of the metering device must be specified in the technical specifications that the customer must comply with so that the RSO can install (replace) the metering device.

From all that has been said, it follows that in this situation Order N 627 is not mandatory, the RSO is not required to draw up an inspection report (and could not do this until 09/01/2012, when the deadline for the voluntary installation of the main part of metering devices had already expired). If the owner of the premises in the MKD or his representative applied for the installation of an IPU or an OPU to another company (not to the RSO), the latter is not even obliged to conclude an agreement, since it is not public, not to mention drawing up an inspection report.

Forced installation of metering devices

The period of forced installation of metering devices by the RSO has already begun (from 07/01/2012 to 07/01/2013 - for all meters, except for natural gas IMS, for which the deadline comes much later, and thermal energy IMS). The basic rules for the forced installation of meters are described in paragraph 12 of Art. 13 of the Law on Energy Saving. Here, too, there is no mention of technical feasibility: the obligation of the RSO to carry out actions to equip the premises in the MKD and the MKD itself, IPU and OPU, is formulated as absolute. The owners are obliged to ensure the admission of the RSO to the installation sites of metering devices and pay the corresponding costs. However, it is not enough to install metering devices, they must also be put into operation, that is, the possibility of using them to calculate utility bills must be documented. And this is the purpose of determining the criteria for the availability of technical feasibility. Therefore, it turns out that the RSO must take all the necessary actions to install and put the meters into operation (both directly installing the meter and bringing its installation site in line with the mandatory requirements of the legislation on ensuring the uniformity of measurements and technical regulation). This means that the expenses of the RSO, payable by the owners of the premises, can amount to a rather impressive amount.

Thus, we see that Order No. 627 does not in any way affect the obligation of the owners of premises to install metering devices, except (in some cases) for thermal energy metering devices, and the obligation of RSO to forcibly equip MKDs with such meters.

Commissioning of metering devices

At the same time, we recall that Order No. 627 was adopted in pursuance of paragraphs. "d" clause 4 of Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of 05/06/2011 N 354, and this Decree also approved the new Rules for the provision of public services (hereinafter referred to as the new Rules). By the way, they have the same dates of entry into force. According to paragraph 81 of the new Rules, equipping the premises with metering devices, putting the installed meters into operation, proper technical operation, safety and timely replacement must be ensured by the owner of the premises. At the same time, the commissioning of the installed metering device (documenting the metering device as a metering device, according to the indications of which the amount of payment for utilities is calculated) must be carried out by the utility service provider at the request of the owner of the premises no later than a month following the day of its installation. It is in this paragraph of the new Rules that there is the only reference in the legislation to Order N 627: Criteria for the presence (absence) of the technical feasibility of installing metering devices, as well as the form of an inspection report to establish the presence (absence) of the technical feasibility of installing metering devices and the procedure for filling it out are approved Ministry of Regional Development of the Russian Federation. At the same time, according to paragraphs. "t", "y" of clause 31 of the new Rules, the contractor is obliged not to create obstacles for the consumer in exercising his right to install an IMS that meets the requirements of the legislation on ensuring the uniformity of measurements, and to put such a meter into operation. Since the criteria for the availability of technical feasibility have been established in order to determine the possibility of using metering devices of the appropriate type when calculating fees for utility services (clause 1 of Appendix 1 to Order N 627), the lack of technical feasibility of installing a meter, identified in accordance with Order N 627, actually makes it impossible its commissioning (the use of its testimony when calculating utility bills)<5>. Thus, an act on the lack of technical feasibility of installing a meter can be drawn up by a utility contractor invited to put the meter into operation, and should become the basis for refusing to accept the installed meter into operation.

<5>Such a conclusion is more fair in relation to the criteria given in paragraphs. "b" and "c" p. 2 of Appendix 1 to Order N 627. The criterion from paragraphs. "a" of the same paragraph (installation of a meter is impossible without reconstruction, repair, creation of new VIS and in-house equipment) is an objective obstacle to the installation of a meter.

* * *

The criteria for the presence or absence of the technical feasibility of installing metering devices do not always mean the physical possibility or impossibility of installing a particular meter. They testify to the circumstances that make it possible or impossible to use the readings of metering devices when calculating utility bills (the main thing is the compliance of the metering device, the place of its installation with mandatory technical requirements). This means that the utility service provider is not entitled to allow the commissioning of such meters. However, the lack of technical capability does not affect the obligation of the owners of the premises to install metering devices by 07/01/2012 and the obligation of the RSO to forcibly mount such meters before 07/01/2013 (an exception in some cases is the IPU of thermal energy). Therefore, one way or another, meters must be installed, even if for this it is necessary to carry out some activities that are part of the complex of works and services for the maintenance and repair of common property. If the owners of the premises have not done so voluntarily, the RSO will have to take such actions and recover the corresponding costs from them.

Recently, wireless Internet is becoming more and more popular both in our country and abroad. This is due to special technologies that allow you to receive Internet in a private house without a telephone.

Why is the technology of connecting to the Internet without a cable so convenient

In the private sector, laying a cable from an access point directly to the house is quite an expensive pleasure, and the speed with such a connection is low. If the wire is damaged in one of its sections, repairs take weeks, or even months. Therefore, new technologies in the field of connecting to the network via satellite or using USB modems are an excellent solution to all the above problems. In addition, wireless Internet in a private home allows owners to access the network simultaneously from different devices: smartphones, tablets, laptops.

Wireless Internet

Connecting to the World Wide Web without using telephone lines has become not only popular, but also very convenient for a modern person. An increasing number of users are refusing the offer of "wired Internet to a private house", preferring wireless. Is the latter really that good? To answer this question, you should analyze the positive and negative aspects.

Pros and cons of wireless internet

The following advantages can be mentioned:


Negative sides

If you decide to connect the Internet to a private house without a phone, then check out the disadvantages. They are as follows:

  • A single Internet access point can connect a large number of devices. The traffic speed is divided equally among all devices. Because of this, the loading time of web pages for each user individually increases.
  • Physical objects that are on the way to the device can also worsen the speed of information transfer.
  • A Wi-Fi hotspot that has low reliability can be easily hacked.

When choosing a connection method, it is important to clearly understand how many devices you plan to regularly use to access the network. Internet in a private house without a telephone is recommended to be installed with a small number of connections. When you plan to use a maximum of three or four devices to enter the network. But wired Internet in a private house is best used for an extensive network.

Types of wireless internet

Internet in a private house without a phone can be installed using the following devices and components:


The price of the Internet in a private house

So, you have chosen wireless Internet in a private house. The price won't shock you. But it all depends on the type of this Internet, the company and the costs incurred when connecting. On average, you can connect to wireless Internet for 4000-5000 rubles (including the necessary equipment). As for the tariffs, setting from 0.5 to tens of megabits, you will need to pay an additional 300 to 2500 rubles. Operators have different prices for the Internet. Before deciding to connect to the Internet, you should consult with employees of companies that provide wireless access to the World Wide Web. Any self-respecting company will give reliable information about the price and advise on all issues.

Registration N 23933

From September 1, 2012, new rules for the provision of public services in multi-apartment and residential buildings are introduced. According to them, individual, common (apartment) and collective (common house) metering devices for consumed resources (cold and hot water, electricity and heat, natural gas) should be installed in the premises. An exception is the technical impossibility of such an installation.

The criteria by which it is determined have been developed. For example, it is considered impossible to install metering devices if this requires reconstruction, overhaul of existing ones or the creation of new in-house engineering systems (in-house equipment). A similar conclusion is made if it is impossible to comply with the mandatory metrological and technical requirements for the metering device or the requirements for the conditions of its operation (in particular, due to the technical condition of engineering systems, humidity, temperature conditions, electromagnetic interference, flooding of premises).

Individual and common (apartment) heat energy meters are not installed in apartment buildings with vertical wiring of engineering heating systems.

The results of a survey of the technical feasibility of installing a metering device are reflected in the act. Its form and filling order are established.

In newly built houses, the technical possibility of installing metering devices should be available in any case.

Order of the Ministry of Regional Development of the Russian Federation of December 29, 2011 N 627 "On approval of the criteria for the presence (absence) of the technical feasibility of installing individual, common (apartment), collective (common house) metering devices, as well as the form of an inspection report to establish the presence (absence) the technical feasibility of installing such metering devices and the procedure for filling it out"
