PECO Switching Warminster Customers to Digital Meters

The replacements are scheduled to begin the first week of December. Uniformed employees with IDs will be out in the neighborhoods performing the work.

The following was posted by Warminster Township:

PECO’s contractor, Grid One, will begin to install new digital meters on residential customers homes in Warminster Township the first week of December.  

Customers will receive written communication from PECO prior to meter installation.  Forty-five days prior to installation, customers will receive a letter notifying them that Grid One will be doing the install and providing a telephone number they can call if they have questions.  

Customers will receive a second letter, twenty-one days prior to installation again, to remind them that installation is coming.  The day before installation customers receive an automated telephone call about the installation.

The day of installation the Grid One installer will attempt a door knock before the installation and will leave a card after installation.  Customers will have a brief interruption (less than 15 minutes) when the existing meter is pulled and the new meter is installed.

Grid One employees will be in uniform, with safety equipment and possess ID.  They will operate small pickup trucks or small utility vans, white in color, with “Grid One, a PECO contractor” displayed on the vehicle.
