Split (CIU) Prepaid Meters<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Split prepaid meters are the most common type of prepaid electricity meter used in Nigeria. They consist of two separate devices: the main meter, which is usually installed outside the building, and a Customer Interface Unit (CIU), which is placed inside the home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The CIU serves as the keypad through which you enter electricity tokens, check your remaining balance, view your meter number, and perform other basic functions. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Examples of Split prepaid meters are\u00a0 Conlog, Hexing, Holley, MOJEC, and Landis+Gyr, which are available in split-meter configurations.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Integrated_Keypad_Meters\"><\/span><b>2. Integrated Keypad Meters<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Integrated keypad meters have the keypad built directly into the meter, so there is no separate Customer Interface Unit (CIU). All functions, including loading electricity tokens, checking your balance, and accessing meter information, are carried out on the meter itself. This type of meter is often preferred because it combines all functions into a single device. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Common types of this meter include Longi, MEMMCOL, MOJEC, Sanxing, and Linyang.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Common_Prepaid_Meter_Keypad_Codes_in_Nigeria\"><\/span><b>Common Prepaid Meter Keypad Codes in Nigeria<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Different manufacturers use different keypad commands.

Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Confirm_youre_using_the_correct_code_for_your_meter_brand\"><\/span><b>1. Confirm you&#8217;re using the correct code for your meter brand<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prepaid meter keypad codes vary by manufacturer. A code that works on a Hexing meter may not work on a MOJEC, Conlog, Holley, or Landis+Gyr meter. Double-check that you&#8217;re entering the correct balance code for your specific meter model and press the <\/span><b>Enter<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> key after typing the code if required.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Ensure_the_CIU_is_properly_plugged_in\"><\/span><b>2. Ensure the CIU is properly plugged in<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For split prepaid meters, make sure the Customer Interface Unit (CIU) is securely plugged into a working wall socket. A loose connection or faulty power outlet can prevent the CIU from communicating with the meter, making it impossible to display your balance.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Restart_the_CIU\"><\/span><b>3. Restart the CIU<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes, simply restarting the CIU can resolve temporary communication issues. Unplug the CIU from the power outlet, wait for about 30 seconds, and plug it back in. Once it powers up completely, enter the balance code again.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Check_communication_between_the_meter_and_CIU\"><\/span><b>4. Check communication between the meter and CIU<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your meter uses Power Line Communication (PLC), Radio Frequency (RF), or another wireless communication method, poor communication can prevent the balance from displaying. Check whether the CIU shows communication-related errors or warning messages. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your meter has recently been installed or relocated, it may need to be paired or reconfigured by your electricity distribution company.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Verify_that_the_meter_is_working_normally\"><\/span><b>5. Verify that the meter is working normally<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Look at the meter display to see if it&#8217;s showing any error codes such as Tamper, Communication Error, Reject, or Fault. These messages may indicate a problem that prevents normal operation. Refer to your meter&#8217;s user guide or contact your electricity provider for assistance if an error code is displayed.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Confirm_that_you_have_a_power_supply\"><\/span><b>6. Confirm that you have a power supply<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some prepaid meters and CIUs may not work correctly during prolonged power outages or if there is an issue with the electrical supply to your premises. Wait until power is restored and try checking your balance again.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Contact_your_electricity_distribution_company\"><\/span><b>7. Contact your electricity distribution company<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;ve confirmed that you&#8217;re using the correct code and the problem persists after restarting the CIU and checking the connections, contact your electricity distribution company (DisCo). Their customer support team can help diagnose communication issues, reactivate your meter if necessary, or arrange a technician visit if there&#8217;s a hardware fault.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Make_Your_Electricity_Bill_Payment_with_Prestmit\"><\/span><b>How to Make Your Electricity Bill Payment\u00a0 with Prestmit<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Buying electricity online is fast and convenient with <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prestmit<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.

Do all prepaid meters use the same balance check code?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No. Prepaid meter keypad codes vary by manufacturer and model. For example, MOJEC, Hexing, Conlog, Holley, Landis+Gyr, and other meter brands each have their own set of codes. Always use the code designed for your specific meter model.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_How_do_I_know_the_brand_or_model_of_my_prepaid_meter\"><\/span><b>2. How do I know the brand or model of my prepaid meter?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can find your meter brand and model number on the label attached to the meter or Customer Interface Unit (CIU). Common brands in Nigeria include MOJEC, Hexing, Conlog, Holley, Landis+Gyr, MEMMCOL, and Sanxing.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Can_I_check_my_prepaid_meter_balance_without_entering_a_code\"><\/span><b>3. Can I check my prepaid meter balance without entering a code?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some modern prepaid meters automatically display the remaining units by cycling through information on the screen. However, many meters require you to enter a keypad code to view your balance on the CIU.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Why_does_my_prepaid_meter_display_an_error_instead_of_my_balance\"><\/span><b>4. Why does my prepaid meter display an error instead of my balance?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An error message may indicate a communication problem between the meter and the CIU, an incorrect keypad code, a temporary system fault, or a meter issue such as tamper detection. If restarting the CIU doesn&#8217;t resolve the issue, contact your electricity distribution company (DisCo).<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_What_should_I_do_if_my_meter_balance_seems_incorrect\"><\/span><b>5. What should I do if my meter balance seems incorrect?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Compare the displayed balance with your recent electricity purchases and usage. If the balance appears inaccurate after confirming your recent token was successfully loaded, contact your electricity distribution company for assistance.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span><b>Conclusion<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Checking your prepaid meter balance is easy once you know the correct keypad code for your meter brand.
