Amidst the hullabaloo in State over replacing regular power meters by smart meters, Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Limited (MSEDCL), as per information, has not mentioned about domestic and commercial consumers as yet. Amid all-cornered opposition and apprehension among citizens, sources said, MSEDCL has listed the priority sectors. The list does not include installation of pre-paid meters at any of the household. Now, the field officials are in a fix as they are short of a reason for protest as domestic and commercial categories are exluded from replacement of the power meters. Smart meters project is mandated by Central Government under Smart Meter National Plan as part of Rapid Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS) wherein the aim is to ensure reliable power supply to consumers. But the main component of the scheme is to ensure that power distribution sector is financially stable by eliminating the chances of default. Field units have received guidelines on how to execute the Smart meter programme and the list, as per sources, only mandates affixing pre-paid meters at High Tension (HT) consumers places.
