Municipality in Standerton converts electricity meters
It will be implemented at no cost to the customer.
Lekwa Municipality has initiated a project of converting existing electricity meters to a meter relating to both conventional and pre-paid meters.
A letter outlining the benefits was shared on a WhatsApp-group, saying it would result in more accurate billing, a reduction in continuous electricity losses and replacement of ageing infrastructure.
Meter audits and installations are underway.
According to the letter, only properly authorised officials should be allowed to enter the property or have access to the meter. They will be provided with identification cards.
