Question

I live in an apartment and would like to know how to turn on the electric meter if I am disconnected?

Answer 1

you should call your elec company to do that, if there is a tag or sign on the box then DO NOT TOUCH IT, it will be illegal to do so and could be unsafe.

Answer 2

Paying the bill is always a good idea.

Answer 3

Simply call the electric company and have them turn it on.

Answer 4

if you paid your bill as you should you wouldnt be disconnected.ring your provider

Answer 5

How about this,  pay your bill and you won't have to worry about being disconnected in the first place.

Answer 6

You PAY the bill. that's how you get the electric back on.  

Answer 7

Nobody on this board is going to help you ripoff the electric company.

Answer 8

usually the electric company or the maintainance crew at the complex would do that.  

Answer 9

It can be done, but it is not hard to be discovered.  It is very illegal and you would end up with a large fine, possible jail time, and it would be very difficult for you to ever get electricity again.  It would be necessary for you to make a large deposit up front before you would ever have electricity in your apartment again.

I would really think about this before going forward.

Go to the electric company and discuss other options.

good luck.
