So the meter outside my house reduces the pressure?* I thought the

I had noticed on older houses there's some kind of valve seperate from
the meter (often exposed to the outdoor weather!), presumably nowadays
it's inside the meter.


Your meter has a regulator that drops from an already lowish pressure to
20mbar.
