My Meter is off but my power is on.

My Meter is off but my power is on.


Some of our meters go to sleep mode after a period of inactivity to conserve energy. Depending on the meter you are using, swiping your card or keying in code for checking your balance will activate the meter.
Please see the customer relations executive at our district office if the meter remains off.
