Electrical submetering allows building owners, cooperatives, and condominiums to control rising electric costs and allow owners and tenants to have direct control as to how much or how little they pay for electricity.
Submetering is the process of allocating electrical energy costs on an individual apartment basis. Usually this is performed by metering the energy consumed per apartment and billing the individual tenant or owner for the energy consumed. In this manner the individual owner or tenant is financially responsible for the electrical energy consumed in the apartment. Many older apartment complexes were built as master metered buildings with the building paying the energy costs for all residents in the building.
Submetering involves the installation of a sensor, which monitors the energy consumed in each apartment. Present state-of-the-art, digital meters are read remotely using a computer. Depending on how a building’s electrical distribution system has been installed, the individual apartment sensor can be installed in the building basement, the meter room if provided, or the individual apartment. Installation of the sensor in an apartment can usually be accomplished with little inconvenience to the tenant and goes in the circuit breaker panel in the apartment. Often the installed cost is less than $200 per apartment for a mid-sized complex.
