EKEDC Issued A Warning To Bring Out Wires From Conduit - Any Advice? by DesChyko: 6:58pm On Aug 15, 2023 |
I'll like anyone with insight or experience on why this demand was made to let me know if this is standard practice. These pair of prepaid meters has been installed since 2009 (14 years ago) and the house was built with conduit wiring. The wire bearing the supply from the electric poles entered the building as shown below and exits where the meters and junction boxes for each flats are installed (pictures shown below). It was quite surprising when I came home today to meet this 'Disconnection Order' from EKEDC, asking that the wires be pulled out off the wall within 48 hours to avoid disconnection (or visit their office at Isashi). I'd like to know if anyone has had this experience before and what the reason for such order is as I do not think conduit wiring is outlawed by them before now..or has it been outlawed? Note that there is no contact email or phone number on the order and my primary concern is how breaking the walls if necessary might affect the structural integrity of the building. I'll appreciate any rapid response to this. Thanks in advance. Pic 1: The order: Meter No(Yellow), Home Address (Blue).

They are right ,u can only hide ur output cables not the input cables going to the meter,their fear is that u might tap/bypass the power/supply before it gets to the meter. 226 Likes 12 Shares |

First time of making front page... I guess they are suspecting you bypassed some connections. Visit them at their office to sort it out. 22 Likes 4 Shares |

Go to EKEDC with an expert electrician. Find out what exactly they want, and then return with the officals and the electrican and do the appropriate repairs. Problem solved. My opinion though. 51 Likes 1 Share |

People go distribute wire for AC and Freezer off the metter and put only lighting Unit on the meter… We and our leaders are thief… They just form criminal associations like “Association of Past Criminals” While we dey run our thief individually, the reason they’re stealing more than us is because they’re united… remember team work makes the dream work. I be power company I will direct everyone to put their metter outside on the pole… but I understand Adamu , Femi and Emeka might steal it. 9 Likes 2 Shares |
