Utility Meter Coordination

Seamless liaison between you and your power company

About Our Utility Meter Coordination Service

Madison Electric serves as the technical liaison between property owners and utility companies for all metering-related matters. Our utility meter coordination service handles communication about installation requirements, schedules service connections and disconnections, resolves technical questions about equipment specifications, and ensures your electrical infrastructure meets utility standards. We translate technical requirements into clear action items and manage the process from start to finish.
Your utility company has specific expectations for metering installations that may not be clear from their documentation. Our electricians understand these requirements through years of working with local utilities. We prepare your site properly, submit necessary documentation, schedule utility visits, and address any issues that arise during inspections or installations. This coordination eliminates confusion and prevents costly rework from installations that don’t meet utility specifications.

What’s Included in Our Utility Meter Coordination Service

Coordinating with your utility provider takes experience, careful planning, and precise execution. At Madison Electric, we manage the full coordination process so you don’t have to.

Utility Application & Approval Handling

We prepare and submit all required documentation and applications to your utility company to request new meter service, upgrades, or relocation.

Scheduling Utility Visits

We coordinate with the utility provider to schedule inspections, meter installation, disconnection, or re‑connection — working around their timelines so the process runs smoothly.

Pre‑Installation Site Review

Before any meter work, we review your property layout and meter location requirements to ensure everything meets utility standards and safety codes.

On‑site Utility Company Liaison

We act as the main point of contact between you and the utility company. We meet onsite with their technicians if needed, to clarify scope and ensure proper setup.

Coordination of Electrical Work with Utility Timing

Our electricians align their work (wiring, meter base prep, panel readiness) with utility schedules — making sure meter installation or activation happens only once your system is ready.

Permit and Compliance Management

We ensure all required permits, safety checks, and code compliance reports are submitted and approved before the meter is connected.

Testing & Final System Verification

Once the meter is installed, we oversee functional testing — checking that wiring, grounding, and panel connections work correctly, and that the utility can read and activate the meter without issues.

Documentation & Handover Support

We provide complete documentation: installation records, compliance certificates, utility approvals, and guidance on how to manage meter readings and utility account setup.
