Starting January 1, 2025, SCE will start replacing and upgrading discontinued wired-modem meters with wireless smart meters or an alternative.
SCE is working to ensure reliable and safe infrastructure, including the replacement of aging and discontinued equipment, as necessary. These discontinued wired-modem meters will soon be no longer supported.
No action is required on your part. SCE will conduct a site assessment, and if possible, replace the meter immediately. If necessary, SCE will conduct a second site visit to complete the meter upgrade. This work will take place Monday-Friday, 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.
After we complete work to upgrade your meter or if we are unable to gain access to complete the upgrade, we will leave a door hanger to notify you of the outcome.
No. SCE will no longer be maintaining the discontinued meter equipment.
There is no cost to the customer to disconnect the existing meter and install a standard wireless smart meter.
