The point to understand
A meter may register appliances, storage systems or more than one property. Movement that looks unexplained needs to be considered against that supply arrangement.
Put it into practice
Keep dated readings and water-supplier correspondence. Explain periods when you expected demand to be absent and which other connections may exist.
Keep the limits in view
Movement can support a reason to investigate, but it does not identify a repair point or establish who owns the pipe.
