Universal Citation: WI Admin Code § ATCP 92.41
Current through August 26, 2024

When liquefied petroleum gas is sold or delivered to consumers by liquid measurement through use of a liquid meter that is not equipped with an automatic temperature compensating mechanism, then its volume shall be corrected to a temperature of 60° F. through use of the volume correction factor table set forth in this paragraph. To correct measured volume to volume at 60° F., determine the temperature of the liquid after midpoint in the delivery from the thermometer referred to in s. ATCP 92.40, find the observed temperature in the temperature column in the table, refer to the appropriate column for the product delivered, read the volume conversion factor opposite the observed temperature, and multiply the volume delivered as indicated by the meter by the factor to obtain the volume at 60° F.
