Meter Boards & Metering Panels

KPLC-compliant multi-tenant metering boards, utility CT metering enclosures, and smart sub-metering panelboards

Overview

KPLC-Approved Metering Solutions

Nairobi Power Engineers manufactures utility-compliant meter boards and metering panels that pass Kenya Power & Lighting Company (KPLC) inspection first time without rework. From multi-user residential apartment meter boards to heavy commercial Current Transformer (CT) metering cubicles, every panel is engineered strictly to KPLC Technical Specifications and IEC 61439-1/2.

Our enclosures feature dedicated sealed utility compartments, transparent polycarbonate viewing windows, padlockable hasps, high-conductivity tin-plated copper busbar systems, and segregated tenant consumer isolators.
