Maximum demand ammeters

I've seen a few fotos recently on  vintage mains plugs  and other curiositys  page on Facebook of the inside of various 11/0,4 kv  substations  they all seem to have ammeters to measure the current on each phase these are max demand meters how do they reset the maximum value indicator? Also do they have a way to record  these values? The meters I've seen all look old  as the hills so not sure what recording technology  was around years ago. I know  these days a lot if these subs have a radio link  at least here in SSE land

    You got to admire engineers of old some of the ideas of the past are truly amazing

    What always impresses me is the standard telephone connection. Using only 2 wires and passive electronics it can: supply power; supply a ringing signal; supply audio; send audio; send an indication of on or off hook; send dialling numbers.
