Pre-payment power metering

An attractive metering alternative available to our domestic customers is the pre-payment electricity meter.

Power is credited to the meter by means of a use-only-once token. The token is a magnetic strip card that comes in denominations of $5, $10, $20, and $50. The card is fed into a slot on the front of the meter and the value of the card is credited to the meter. The meter can hold credits of up to $999.

How much does it cost?

For the current prepayment meter tariff and cost of installation view the tariff brochure.

Who can use this meter?

Meters are currently available for people with a single phase electricity service. You must have access to the meter box to insert the token into the meter. Written permission is required from your landlord if you are renting.
