The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) states that relocating electricity meters without permission is illegal, with exceptions for movable structures such as containers and kiosks within the same district.
According to ECG, every meter is designated to a particular location, and any move must be sanctioned by ECG. Unapproved relocations can affect billing accuracy, disrupt service, and result in legal issues.
In an interview, ECG’s General Manager for External Communications, Dr. Charles Nii Ayiku Ayiku, noted that relocating meters is a regulated process that must be executed by ECG personnel only after a formal request.
“We don’t allow the transfer of meters from one location to another. Meter transfers are only permitted for movable structures or properties, such as containers and kiosks, and even then, only within the same district. Even with movable structures, you must seek formal permission from ECG.
“Such transfers can only be carried out by ECG-authorized personnel upon an official request. However, when it comes to immovable structures, meter transfers are strictly prohibited,” he said on Citi News.
Dr. Ayiku also stated that ECG is enhancing its public education initiatives to inform customers about the risks associated with unauthorised meter relocations and to ensure they have a clearer understanding of ECG’s procedures.
