FACTORS TO CONSIDER WHEN INSTALLING A METER BASE

Before you get an electric meter base installed, there are a few factors you should consider.

  • Capacity: Your meter base must have the right capacity for your property. Because of this, you need to have a professional electrician evaluate your energy usage and your capacity needs.
  • Location: Ideally, the meter base should be installed in a well-ventilated location. You don’t want it installed somewhere that has a lot of hazards or obstructions. Because you may need to have maintenance and repairs performed in the future, you should make sure it is put in an accessible spot. 
  • Future Growth: As you create your expansion plan, keep in mind any future renovations that you may have planned. You should install a meter base that can accommodate your future expansion plans and energy consumption.
  • Safety: No matter what capacity you get, you should ensure the meter base meets safety regulations so that your family can have better peace of mind.

SHOULD I GET MY METER BASE REPAIRED OR REPLACED?

When your meter base is having issues, it may be time to get a replacement. In general, there are a few factors you should keep in mind when deciding between a repair or replacement. 

  • Outdated: An outdated meter base may be more likely to break down. Additionally, older bases may not meet current building code requirements and could have safety issues.
  • Frequent issues: You can generally determine if you need to get repairs or replacements based on how frequently you need repairs. When there are frequent issues, it means your meter base is gradually starting to break down. You should get it replaced because your existing meter base will only continue to need more repairs carried out over time.
  • Safety concerns: A meter base posing any safety concerns should be replaced. One of our professional electricians can inspect the device and determine if there are any safety issues to worry about.
  • Cost of repairs: An easy way to choose between repairs and replacements is to consider the cost. You can talk to one of our experienced electricians to determine what the cost of repairing the meter base might look like.
