Implementing load orchestration might not help you if you have meter problems. Sometimes you might think that you are using more energy when the truth is that you have a faulty meter. Keep reading to learn some common electricity bill problems and how to fix them.
Wrong meter reading
You can find out about wrong meter readings if you received a bill that is much higher than what you received the previous month when you didn’t even change your consumption and behavior. This could be due to getting a higher bill than the correct bill.
Call your electricity company and explain your situation. Ask them to countercheck their reading and correct any issues. You should wait until the next month to see if your bill has accounted for the faulty reading you received the previous month. This should result in a lower energy bill.
Broken meter
This is a tricky problem because the meter might not be physically damaged from the outside. It might be something internal that you cannot see. You might notice this problem if your energy bill increased significantly compared to the past months without a change in your energy consumption.
You should call a professional to troubleshoot the meter. Consider replacing your meter with a functional meter if you find out that you are using a faulty meter that is inflating your energy bills.
Electricity stealth
Someone could be stealing your power from your meter if you notice a sudden increase in energy bills. Turn off the main breaker in your CB panel. Your meter should stop moving. Someone could be using your electricity if the meter continues counting even after turning off the circuit breaker.
You will have to take legal action against anyone stealing your electricity. Consider load orchestration and energy management systems to reduce your energy consumption further and prevent electricity theft.
