at week 5, we still under metering department.we learn a lot from the technicians.In a day, we need to go to many places to put on the meter.But, if we need to use CT meters, we usually take some time to complete the task.So we usually use the whole day at the same place.The workers there explained to us about the location meter.The meter board, which accommodates the TNB’s service cut out, meters and other auxiliary equipment, shall as far as is practicable be located in such a way that it is easily accessible by TNB personnel.
The meter position for terrace house, semi detaches and bungalows in urban area should be at the entrance gate. For flats and condominium the meter should be group together. For low cost terrace house and in rural residential the meter board should be placed on / near the electric poles.


For shop house and other commercial terrace buildings (< 4 storey) the meter should be place on the pillar in front of the premises. For group of commercial lots in a shopping complex the meter should be grouped together (can be a few groups depend on the number of lots).
For low voltage industries, the meter should be located in a special partition in the switch room. Only TNB personal can access to it.In majority cases, the height of the meter board shall be such that the meter is about 1.8 meters above ground level. For other cases, the location of meter board must first be referred to TNB and approved by them.
