One of the inconvenient sound heared especially during less amount of recharge credit from power is the beeping sound from the prepaid meter. I will show you how to temporally turn of the prepaid meter noise.
What is a prepaid meter
Prepaid meter is an electronic device that measures the amount of voltage used and vary it with recharge. it is a good way of consuming electric power, paying for electricity bills as it presents the actual value of electricity you use while deductions are been made from the recharge.
Long ago when there used to be manual electricity bill issues and you cannot really measure the amount of current you use from others. You actually pay the share of the general bill even if it’s a bulb that in your room.
Turning of the prepaid meter noise
To turn of the noise from the prepaid meter especially when your recharge is getting exhausted, just press any button on the keypad and press enter as well.
It will show you and error command after which it noise is muted. But you must be prepared to do this often especially if power is unstable.
Advantages of using a prepaid meter
Using prepaid meter can allow you recharge any amount
I do recharge $1.5 dollar per month because I don’t have much appliances. I only got my personal computer, phone, fan and a bulb. So I can recharge amount presented above and I takes me up to a month. But if I get to use the pressing iron more frequently, I found out that I sucks though but not much.
No excessive bill payment
Like I said earlier, if you live an environment where there is no prepaid meter, you will pay excess of bills you never wished to. Some apartment even have debt the previous occupant incurred on electricity. But with the prepaid, once your recharge is exhausted, it automatically cuts of the power from you.
Caring for the prepaid meter
It is essential when you are not making use of the power, turn off your prepaid meter. This is applicable to people who wants to travel or leaving for work.
The actual amount of current passing through the wires to your sockets is deducted from your recharge. Though it’s a small amount.

Hi @emmainiobong3. Thanks for sharing this with the community. This is new to me as I haven't seen this type of meter yet. You don't find these in my country, or Europe in general. Here you consume first and pay later.
