Meter Information

Keeping You Current

With Updated Meters

EEA upgraded its metering system...read more. For more information on commonly asked questions regarding this meter change, please read our Frequently Asked Questions Regarding Upgrade. For those concerned about the effects of Electromagnetic (EMF) or Radio Frequencies (RF) from digital meters, we have included research conducted by the Electric Power Research Institute and the World Health Organization that revealed no health impact from Radio Frequency (RF) digital meters. Radio frequencies emitted by RF digital meters fall well below the maximum recommended in federal guidelines according to the EPRI Report on Radio Frequency Exposure Levels. For a quick reference of RF comparisons of common sources, click here.

This printable flyer explains How to Read Your Electric Meter.
