Information
Definition
The Measuring Instruments Regulations 2016 (MIR) are the UK regulations covering legally controlled measuring instruments, including active electrical energy meters used for trade. In EV charging they are relevant where measured kWh values are used to calculate charges, payments or rewards.
Why it matters
They matter because UK billing and trade use may require approved metering arrangements, making MIR distinct from the EU MID framework even where terminology overlaps.
