Electric Meters switched?
Hello BP. I currently own a duplex that has separate electric meters for each unit. My unit in which I am living in is a one bedroom one bathroom apt. The other unit us a 3 bed 1 bath apt. with 3 people living in it. My electric bill last month was $220 which seems extremely high to me for a one bedroom apt with one window AC unit. The billing cycle is now 5 days in and I have been out of town for 4 of these days. It is now saying that I have consumed $35 in electricity when I have only been there for one single day. I am sure that the lights are all off and the AC is off. Imp thinking that there is a chance that we have the meters switched and my tenant is paying for my meter and I am paying for there's. Can anybody advise me on how to correct this and or verify that the meters are for what unit.

You can turn off the breaker in your unit and see which meter is still moving.
