Why read your own meter

In months where your meter is not read, we estimate your power use based on your last 12 months of electricity consumption. By reading your own meter between visits from your meter reader, you can:

keep your power bill current and accurate
minimize fluctuations in your power bill between estimates and actual readings
understand how much power you use

Meter reading schedule

Customers in cities or towns — every third month
Customers in rural areas and on acreages – once a year
Customers in resort areas – once a year
