Madison Electric facilitates the transition to intelligent metering systems that provide detailed consumption data and remote monitoring capabilities. Our smart meter upgrade service prepares your electrical infrastructure for advanced measurement devices that communicate directly with utility companies. We verify that your meter base and connections are compatible with the new technology and make any necessary modifications before the utility installs their equipment.
Your utility company may require infrastructure updates before they can install their advanced metering devices. Our electricians assess your current setup, identify components that need upgrading, and complete all necessary electrical work to support the new technology. We ensure proper grounding, adequate connections, and secure mounting that meets specifications for digital communication equipment.
Upgrading to a smart meter modernizes your home’s electricity monitoring and billing, giving you accurate data, better control, and long‑term reliability. At Madison Electric, we handle the complete upgrade process from evaluation to final testing to ensure your new meter works perfectly within your existing electrical system.
We evaluate your current meter and electrical setup to verify compatibility and identify any potential issues before the upgrade.
We safely cut off electricity supply before removing the old meter to guarantee a secure upgrade process.
We dismantle and remove your existing meter and any outdated components (meter base, enclosures) carefully.
We install a modern, code‑compliant smart meter — including a new base or enclosure if required — ensuring the meter is securely mounted, properly connected, and ready for operation.
We check all wiring and grounding connections to meet current safety standards, reducing risks of malfunction or hazards.
We configure the smart meter’s communication functions (remote data transmission, usage tracking) and test for correct operation, stable readings, and reliable connectivity.
Once installed, the meter links with your utility’s billing and monitoring services — enabling automatic meter reading and, if available, real‑time consumption tracking.
We complete the installation neatly, secure all components, and verify everything works before leaving — so your meter upgrade is reliable, safe, and ready for daily use.
It's an advanced unit that measures consumption digitally and transmits data to utilities wirelessly.
Many properties require updates to meter bases, grounding, or connections for compatibility.
We prepare the infrastructure; utility companies typically install their own measurement equipment.
Most upgrades require a few hours depending on the extent of modifications needed.
