If you are adding a granny flat on your NSW property, you need to have a separate meter. Having a separate meter can prevent arguments about electricity usage.
Dave Fenech Electrical Services Pty Ltd is your local level 2 certified electrician. Our licensed electricians can connect power to the granny flat and install the new meter.
Why do You Need a Granny Flat Meter?
Granny flats are a great way to bring in supplemental income. Housing costs are expensive and adding a granny flat can help you and your tenant. A granny flat is a cheaper place to live for your tenant, and you will be bringing more money into your home.
If you add a granny flat, it is important to separate the electric from your home or other flats. If you do not, you will only receive one bill for all the energy usage. Splitting up the charges can be a headache and lead to arguments.
Having a sub meter for a granny flat will ensure that your tenant receives a bill for their actual usage. You may also save money too. Splitting up the electricity usage may remove you from the higher consumption bracket.
Benefits of Putting Electricity Meter on Granny Flat
