Actually that depends on whether the flow rate was measured with the device attached or not. Consider the following scenario. You turn on the tap and measure the flow rate. You then connect a hose to the tap with a hand held nozzle. The nozzle has been completely closed. You then remove the hose and once again measure the flow rate from the tap, which has changed little from your first measurement. Can you now claim to have measured the flow rate through the nozzle?
