Penelec - Meter Reading Work Schedule

Penelec issues bills based on actual meter readings every other month (bimonthly).  On the months your meter is not read, your bill is estimated.  You can submit a meter reading online or by calling our Contact Center if you prefer not to receive an estimated bill.

To submit your reading, you must enter it within a three-day window, which is listed on your bill the month before a scheduled estimation.  We will use your actual supplied reading to calculate your bill only if it is entered within this window.  If you enter a reading outside of this window, we will prorate your bill using the reading you provided.

Penelec Meter Reading Cycle Bill Location

In the bill example above, the green arrow shows where you can find the meter schedule code on your bill. The number is the Cycle Portion. Select the month below and find the corresponding Cycle Portion to see when your meter is scheduled to be read.

Please be aware that your meter may be read one day before or after the Scheduled Meter Read Date if the meter reader needs to adjust the schedule because of weather, holidays, vacation or sick days.
