Good Morning PEEDS...The above is in Military Parlance-GBU-43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast (MOAB), nicknamed "MOTHER OF ALL BOMBS"...
The reason for the title is due to what just took place at my residence...A Sun Power & Light guy (I live in Florida) just replaced my electrical meter in 3 seconds - wait for it---> BECAUSE he got notified by a company in North Carolina that my meter was bad and needed to be replaced...
I then pointed out that with that capability they could turn off POWER too any home in a matter of seconds and he said "YES" they could and what is more frightening is that ALL NEW homes are NOW PART OF A GRID system...Also, he pointed out that any homes before a certain year will also be converted at NO expense to the owner...also, the meters don't last more than three (3 years)...WASTE OF RESOURCES!!!
P.S. This is my first post on this site so--- be extremely gentle...😂😂😂😂😂
#1 yup I got electric #² no one reads the meter it reads itself and passes the information on to the nearest uplink. #3 yup he was doing his job. #4 I never threatened him. #5 a courtesy call that's it call me let me know your here. #6 again nobody reads my meter it's automated and I know this. Nobody ever shows at my house to read it. Never
If it's true that they don't actually have to come out to read your meter (which would mean you have a Smart meter) then yes, it's sketchy. But if he actually did have a legitimate reason to be there, (yearly check on the equipment, for instance) then you shouldn't make it any harder on him or anybody. For instance, I seriously hate people who leave a vicious dog in a yard when they know some dude has to go read the meter or drop off a package, etc. But I still think a courtesy call is not realistic.
