Between electromechanical and electronic meters, which gives the most accurate reading?

From the *metrology aspect, both meter types have the same accuracy and will give the same readings.

However, according to the normal practice of any utilities, the meters’ age factor (over 15 years for electromechanical meters and 10 years for the electronic meters) could affect the accuracy of the readings recorded.

Note: *Metrology is a science of measurement, a discipline that study the means of measurement, calibration and accuracy in the field of industry, knowledge and technology.

Can the users choose to install their own electricity meters at their own premises? Which organisations monitor the electricity meter manufacturer?
