Keeping Our Meter Readers Safe

Dog bites are one of the leading causes of injury to our meter readers. That's why we train our employees how to prevent dog attacks.

We all love our pets and want to keep them safe, but even the nicest dogs can be aggressive when a stranger comes onto its owner's property. You can help Duke Energy keep our employees and your pet safe by containing your dog away from the meter on reading days. To find out when your next meter reading will be, look at your bill under "Account Information." Please Note - Meters are normally read on the date listed, however, there are occasions when they will be read one working day before or after that date.

Thank you for helping Duke Energy ensure that we can deliver safe, reliable energy to your home.
