Can Electric meters on a apt or house differ in how they operate, calculate KWh ?

Question

I live in a house with 4 apt's. All three of us have a landis model electric meters running out electricity, but the one aprt at top, best apt here has (GE meter model electric meter)?

I notice she dont; compain about high bills only all three of us.
-3 same meters, landis brand and one GE meter brand ?

The other apartment has had a replacement meter, brand new one. hasn't changed the PUC consumption one bit ??

Is our 3 meters ridged, or tampered by utility company before brought in ? we all have baseboard heaters, I guess they can blame our usuage on that ? Could i have a junction point spliced with top floor, using my bill ?

any suggestion on this ?

Answer 1

The apt. on the top is being indirectly heated by the apts below. Heat rises so your heat is making it's way upstairs and doesn't need as much direct heat. You certainly can ask to have the meters checked, a don't think the fact that she has a different brand of meter is the reason for the difference.

Answer 2

the meters are examined befor they are put in. i dont think of the possibility is very extreme of you have a undesirable meter. the two she isnt utilising lots electric warmth or she would desire to be tied into others.. ive seen that alot over the years. purely thank you to make certain is to have get entry to to her apt, turn your substantial off and notice if something is going out.. or turn her substantial off and notice if something remains on

Answer 3

You can have the meters checked by your electric utility. they might find some differences, Maybe she just doesn't use as much electricity as you do?
