Hi everyone who can help me to get tamper codes for meters that I help people with, I am electrician so I help people with electricity sometimes I find problem like this one
Good day. Can you please explain your problem in more detail.
Once a meter goes into tamper mode there is not much you can do. The service provider needs to be informed and they will send a technician to reset the meter.
Last year we were installing a system for a client and while connecting in a very small boundary box my forman accidently pulled the Neutral from the meter (loose connection). He thought, now problem. he will just open the cover and reconnect the meter. Big mistake as the tamper is triggered by a micro switch on the cover. No amount of explanation helped us in getting this sorted. We were accused of tampering and have to pay a fine of R28000 to get the meter resetted.
As an electrician, I will strongly advise you not to get involved in situations like that, as the last electrician working there, you and your company might be held responsible and be held liable. You might land up paying the fines for trying to help.
Damn, that is hectic.
I remember when my pre-paid meter was tripped, all I had to do was call up Tshwane and they send out a tech to verify. He was happy we were only installing solar and reset the meter for us.
