Maria asks:

The situation is this The spouse was fixing the sockets went to the staircase to turn off the outlet group so as not to get an electric charge. Turns off our switch, a neighbor runs out and says turn on the light, my husband says I turned off your switch in the other direction. It turned out that the entire socket group of neighbors was sitting on our switch. We counted the consumption per day. Our apartment is 36 kilowatts per day!!!, and the neighboring one is 4 Sq. We know that this is a mistake of electricians, since in 2017 our meter burned out from an internal weak contact, more then we told the electrician that they were winding us up a lot, something was wrong, but our words remained in air.

If we write to the management company now, they will immediately come running to fix everything, since it is not profitable for them to recalculate for the entire period.

Question!! Please tell me what is the right thing to do where to go? How to apply correctly to draw up an act, confirm the fact of unauthorized connection and make a recalculation! I really look forward to advice. Thanks.

For 3 years you have not noticed the problem of a sharp increase in electricity consumption, and the neighbors, on the contrary, have not noticed a sharp decrease in energy consumption?

Something is wrong here, the electrician, when replacing the meter, should not have touched the machines of the outlet group and lighting! The counter is BEFORE them.

Contact a lawyer on housing and communal services, you need to fix the current situation in some way independent of your Criminal Code and then contact them. If they refuse, go to court.

In any case, even if you call an electrician to fix this problem, then there should be an entry about this in the Criminal Code's journal, on the basis of which you can try to defend your rights in court. As well as a record of the previous call and replacement of the electricity meter.

By the way, were there any documents left after replacing the meter?
