As per attached, my house's meter adapter (I saw the appointed electrician by the developer installed it during the commissioning of the electricity to my unit). Now it is gone. How much does this thing cost?

The meter is installed right at the pillar and locked (and of course can be unlocked easily).

I saw 63A at the DB box so I assume that one is 63A? What is it called? I think I will report to the developer handover office to give them alarm on the theft... I seriously dont think TNB will need to remove this. I saw tampered key hole mark...

Pretty common thing. Can get at any electrical shop. Just snap a picture and show it to the shop.

No TNB didnt take it, it was stolen.

Lucky it was only that item stolen, often the theives take everything.

It is very bad I think. Most probably the workers around took it away. It is gated and guarded. It is still a pretty new development and most owner just took keys early this year...

Thanks man. It is a relief that this adapter can be sourced easily... I was worried that I had to be chopped deep deep by TNB...

Please be careful when you plug in the fuse, live current. Before you plug in that fuse, I suggest you make a marking, previously I had mine marked and when it was stolen, I traced it to my new neighbor.

Brought a baseball bat to confront him.

1 side of the copper contact is LIVE. So becarfull not to touch it.

If your hand shaking, than pay some fee for the shop guy to help you.

I will do the marking too... Dunno which workers here or owners here stole it. But I think I will try at the developer office first to demand a replacement since it was stolen in the first year with their own appointed security company.

Next door neighbor who just moved in few days ago, a Philippine expat. You can't blame my anger because wife got discharge from hospital, reach home and noticed no electricity. Upon checking the main electrical board, saw my fuse missing, look up and down, spotted my fuse on slotted in his unit (mine have marking)

Straight away went home to grab my bat and bang on his door. mad.gif
