Digital meters to help members better control energy use CHEC has contracted with Anixter Utility Power Solutions to upgrade our electric metering system. Anixter has over 80 years of experience in the metering industry, and will begin changing out older AMI (Advanced Metering Infrastructure) meters on the system, with new AMI meters. AMI meters, also known as Smart meters, are updated, digital versions of the traditional electric meter commonly used in the past. AMI meters not only measure how much electricity is used, but also at what times during the day. Smart meters are also more accurate than the older meters and are designed to transmit pricing and energy information from the utility company to the consumer (two-way communication). The work is expected to continue through 2022.
