Help!! How Do I Resolve Tamper Mode On AEDC Meter? by Deeprooted(op): 5:15pm On Sep 24, 2025
I still have 36 units in my meter, the meter is still blinking as usual but no light in my apartment.

Thought it was an electrical issue and called an electrician who charged me and after about 30 minutes of guess work, concluded I call on AEDC staff. I did and I was told my meter cover was left open and it has triggered tamper Mode and charged me 50k to provide me with a 20-digit code to clear it.

I tell an say I no get that amount make him reduce but the guy no gree o.

Please someone with similar experience should help me out.

How did you resolve it please?

Power-cycle the supply: switch off the main breaker, wait 30–60 seconds, then turn it back on. Check if the meter clears.


Inspect visually: look for opened seals, loose cover, magnets stuck to the meter, cut wires, or visible damage. Remove any magnet (if present).

In the body of the meter look for tiny hole.
When there's light use needle or pin to depress inside the hole and hold it for about 60 seconds.

Check if the meter has reset
