MIRN

Meter Installation Reference Number

The gas-meter equivalent of an NMI — a unique 10-11 digit ID needed to set up gas accounts.

A Meter Installation Reference Number (also called a Delivery Point Identifier or DPI in some states) is the unique number identifying your gas meter on the network. Your incoming gas retailer needs the MIRN to connect supply to your account. Find it on a previous gas bill or by contacting the local gas distribution network (Jemena, AGN, Multinet etc.). Gas is not connected in all Australian homes — new estates increasingly skip gas entirely.
