Replace with a new meter

At nine o’clock in the evening on the 5th, the post-zero guy who lives in his hometown sent a message saying that there was a power outage at home, but the lights of the neighbor’s house next door were on…

The first reaction must be that there is a problem with his own wiring, so he asked him if he used some high-power electrical appliances to cause the power outage? He said that the electricity was turned off when the water was not boiling in the morning, because the wires in the room were more than 30 years old but hadn’t been used much.

Let him simply check whether the two main switches have tripped, but none of them tripped. He asked me if the power outage was caused by the failure to pay the electricity bill last month? I thought about this possibility and paid the May bill on the China Southern Power Grid official account, only 23.46 yuan per month? We can only wait for the next day to see if the power supply can be restored. That night is destined to be a difficult night.

I sent a message at 12:00 noon the next day and didn’t reply for a long time. I couldn’t get through the phone temporarily, thinking that the phone must have run out of battery. Two hours later, I called and finally got through to ask about the basic situation, because the mobile phone was out of battery and went to the town hospital to charge it, and the power supply at home had not been restored. You don’t need to look to confirm that there is a problem with the line. You have to go back in person. By the way, you reported the fault on the China Southern Power Grid’s official account. The faulty power supply station will arrange for the master to come to repair.

OK. I brought back a set of tool boxes I bought before, and when I opened the outer box of the electric meter, I was surprised to find a charred gecko! ! Perhaps it directed the blackout. Use an electric pen to test the section from the output port of the ammeter to the air switch, and the result is that there is no electricity. Then test the input port of the ammeter and there is power, which proves that there is a problem with the outlet of the ammeter. Remove the wire and carefully check that the output port has melted. After confirming the failure of the electric meter, I immediately called back the number I had contacted before, told him the basic situation and asked if I could send a master to overhaul it. I learned that there were maintenance personnel working in the village next door, and soon someone contacted me. It took about half an hour to arrive at my house…

At about five o’clock, the maintenance master came to check the meter and confirmed that it needed to be replaced with a new meter. There was no extra meter on the car when I came out to work. I had to turn on the electricity before the off-duty time, that is, I would use the old meter for free for one night. . I registered my user number on the spot and arranged for the master to come to replace it the next day. I asked the staff and learned that the replacement of the new meter was free of charge. I thought it would cost one or two hundred yuan to replace the meter.

Generally speaking, the service of the power supply station is quite satisfactory, and I must give it a good review!
