Testing the Meter Installation and Sealing the Device
To test the installation:
1. Ensure that the Meter is correctly installed.
2. Apply power to the meter by closing the upstream breaker.
3. Check that the meter is displaying the available credit in kWh. If a zero balance is
displayed, a credit token needs to be purchased and entered into the meter using the
keypad.
4. Enter
#100#
on the keypad to view the meter serial number.
5. Compare the meter number displayed to the serial number printed on the meter label
and card, to confirm that the numbers match.
6. Turn on an appliance or light in the consumer's premises, to ensure that the consumer
has electricity. In some cases, meter commissioning may be required. For more
information, see the
Commissioning the meter
section
7. If the meter is working correctly, hand over the meter card and user guide to the
consumer.
