Just a quick tip for those who don't know a quick way to check if a prepaid meter has been bypassed or semi bypassed.
Turn on a light in close proximity to the meter.
Punch the following code into the meter 0000 0000 0001 5099 7584
The contactor in the meter will now disconnect the supply.
It will reconnect automatically after a few seconds.
If the light went off, you're good. If not, there's monkey business.
This code is universal and works on any prepaid meter.
NOTE
If this code is used on the new Hexing smart meter that has a separate keypad unit, the meter will not switch back on automatically.
The code has to be entered again in order to switch the meter on.
Be sure that the batteries in the remote unit are good otherwise you gonna sit without power.
Peace out .. Derek Stuart.
