An excess-flow valve (EFV) automatically closes and restricts the flow of natural gas in the event an underground pipe is damaged or if there is a significant increase in the flow of natural gas to the meter. https://www.pge.com/en_US/residential/outages/planning-and-preparedness/safety-and-preparedness/gas-shutoff-devices/gas-shutoff-devices.page === https://www.psncenergy.com/for-my-home/natural-gas-safety www.psncenergy.com › for-my-home › natural-gas-saf... DOMINION NATURAL GAS (includes Raleigh North Carolina) ====================================================== Excess Flow Valve (EFV) Information Excess Flow Valves (EFVs) are installed on the underground natural gas service line that runs from Dominion Energy North Carolina's system to your meter. An EFV is designed to shut off the flow of natural gas automatically if the service line breaks, lessening the possibility of injury or property damage. Federal law required the installation of EFVs on new or replacement service lines since 2010. A new federal law now requires that we install an EFV at a mutually agreeable date upon request of a service line customer provided that the load does not exceed 1,000 standard cubic feet per hour and that (1) the service line operates at a pressure of 10 psig or greater throughout the year; (2) Dominion Energy NC does not have prior experience with contaminants in the gas stream that could interfere with the EFV’s operation or cause loss of service to a customer; (3) an EFV will not interfere with necessary operation and maintenance activities, and (4) an EFV meeting the performance standards in 49 C.F.R. § 192.381 is commercially available. DOMINION NATURAL GAS ==================== Customers with an existing service line installed before 2010 who would like to request installation of an EFV or would like to know if their home has an EFV, may call 1-877-776-2427. An EFV is not required for the normal, safe operation of your service line; it is considered an optional safety measure that may help mitigate the consequences of a service line break. While EFVs may help limit the effect of damages to service lines from excavation, the best way to prevent such incidents is to call 811 before doing or allowing excavation work on your property. Because the EFV is an option, the cost of installation (labor and materials) on an existing service is the customer’s responsibility. If you request an EFV, the cost to have an EFV installed on your existing service generally ranges from $500 to $2,500, which would cover the costs of installation, maintenance, and any future replacement. There may be instances where an EFV cannot be installed. Each situation will be evaluated upon request. For more information, call 1-877-776-2427 or see FAQ. <<<<<<<<<<<<<< Because the EFV is an option, the cost of installation (labor and materials) on an existing service is the customer’s responsibility.
