Energosbyt strongly suggests replacing Electric, who came calibration interval, and asks for this 3900 rubles. I tried to figure out whether you have to pay the money really.


Everyone whose counter has gone beyond calibration interval, in a private office Mosenergosbyt banner appears, as title-screenshot, besides threatening picture send by e-mail and put a notice in the mail box.

Counter offer a change to multi-tariff and ask ha is 3900 rubles.

Please note that at the end of a banner written "recommend" and for good reason. Previously counters owned sales organizations and they had to change them at his own expense. Now meters were owned by homeowners and sales organizations began demanding their replacement with the end of the IIP.

Apparently, due to the imperfection of the legislation in any way to force the landlord to change the meter and it is impossible to refuse to accept the meter readings with MPI released too it is impossible. Therefore, sales organizations can only show scary banners, send letters and to recommend a replacement.

My friend's first letter with a proposal to change the counter came in early summer and the past six months reading "out of order" take counter, as if nothing had happened.

But that is not all.

December 19, 2018 the State Duma have been adopted in the third reading, "Amendments to the draft federal law №139989-7« On Amendments to the Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation in connection with the development of accounting systems of electric energy (power) in Russian Federation. " Under the new law, from July 1, 2020 in the private and apartment buildings in Russia must be installed "smart" metering devices, moreover they should be installed at the expense of energy supply companies.

The conclusion is simple: as long as the sales organization accepts the counter reading of the old, we can not ignore the frightening warning. And next year, they are still free to replace the meter "smart" with automatic transmission indication.
