Karachi: Karachi Electric (K-E) has upgraded technically its meter reading system and replaced the old meters reading with new Digital Meter Readers which is called hand-held devices.
The new introduced Digital Meter Reader equipped with such type of functions through which the meter readers’ employees do not need to note one by one or record the consumed units in register book, which is a completely manual system, where in digital reading system the employee is holding a device which auto reads the consumed units.
These Digital Meter Readers are totally automated and everything is done automatically rather than reading the meters manually-which has been done in previously.
Mostly, people are confused that these new meters reader devices are causing to record a high number of consumed units which they actually don’t utilize. While the truth is that these new Digital Meters Readers record the consumed units according to the customers’ consumption rate. This is the costumers’ psycho problem to not accommodate with new technology.
On new Digital Meter Reader K-E Spokesperson has commented: “In line with KE’s customer centric approach and focus on continuous process improvement, we are glad to announce to roll out of handheld devices for meter reading across our network”.
