Castle Village

From Wednesday April 7th thru Friday April 9th, the submetering contractor will be installing the current measuring devices called donuts over the wires that feed your apartment.

It is extremely important for billing purposes that the donuts be placed around the correct wires for each apartment. A survey of the electric panels shows that most of the breakers are properly labeled, however some are not. In addition, there may be some apartments that share power, a condition that must be rectified. Although it was mentioned that access to all apartments would not be necessary, we feel it prudent to take the opportunity at this time to check all apartment connections to ensure that electricity being consumed, metered and billed is for your apartment and your apartment only; this is particularly true for apartments that did not upgrade from fuses to breakers.
For this reason, we will require access to all apartments.

The contractor will be checking connections on a floor-by-floor basis. Power will be lost to all apartments on a floor for about an hour. During this time, the contractor will be confirming which lines belong to whom and if power is being shared before installing the donuts. The contractor must enter your apartment to check connections and polarity but will be accompanied by Castle Village staff at all times. The table below shows the schedule the contractor will be following (times are approximate). It cannot be changed. If you cannot be home during the time allotted for your floor, let the management office know how access to your apartment will be arranged.
