Zusammenfassung:A water fitting housing 7 comprises a main body section having first and second ends 10 and 19 and a first channel connecting the first and second ends. A first attachment arrangement 11 is located towards a first end of the main body and a second attachment arrangement 28 is located towards a second end of the main body. A rotor 101 is located at least partially within the main body section of the housing and including at least one magnetic element configured to be driven by a flow of fluid through the housing. A stator member 102 is located with respect to the rotor member such that rotation of the magnetic element induces an electrical current in the stator member to generate electrical power. The first attachment arrangement is suitable to be attached to a water meter manifold and the second attachment arrangement is suitable for connecting to a water meter. The housing may include an inner valve supporting section which receives a non-return valve 41. The power generated may provide power to a water meter.
