Electric Distribution System, with each directional energy flow recorded independently.
2. Identification of the appropriate metering rules filed with the Iowa Utilities Board under subrule 199 IAC 20.2(5), and inspection
and testing practices adopted under rule 199 IAC 20.6 that establish these requirements.
3. An Internet link to these rules and practices.
