Hi Odhiambo.
 
KPLC will come to you seeking to install the meter. Currently its a pilot project being run in a few select estates. They just showed up at my doorstep unannounced.
 
@ Brainiac,
 
When purchasing the electricity token, one gets a slip that looks exactly like a postpaid bill, I would have to go have another look at it to ascertain if the fixed charge is still applicable. I suspect it is.
 
I  actually think the prepaid metres will lead to alot of layoffs, e.g the metre reading/connection/disconnection/reconnection guys are probably living on borrowed time.
I doubt these benefits will be transferred to the consumer though. Our hopes lie in cheaper power from Ethiopia!

Quick one on this: 

Every month, my bill comes with a fixed charge of Ksh 120, how does this factor into the pre paid one? If i top up, does the 120 get added?

Additionally, if i am to argue logically, with prepaid, there is no elecman coming to check, so his fuel, his salary , his expenses which i would assume are added into my bill should be deducted.  SHOULDNT THEY?

@ Clement and Brainiac, I use the pre paid meters.
 

@JohnDoe,

How does one get a prepaid meter installed? I have to apply to KPLC or they will do it when they want?
