It’s Convenient and Automatic
Here’s how it works. When a tenant moves and notifies NB Power to disconnect their service, a meter reading will be taken and a final bill issued to the tenant. The power will, however, actually stay on, and the account will be automatically transferred to you, the landlord, and you will not be charged a reconnection fee.
Under the Landlord Service Plan, you will not be responsible for the tenant’s outstanding charges.
The responsibility for electrical service will be yours until a new tenant applies for service. You will be responsible for power consumption and service charges while the meter is in your name and to ensure that the new tenant requests reconnection. Once your new tenant makes this request, a meter reading will be taken to finalize your account and begin the new tenant’s account. Your new tenant must meet any necessary requirements prior to scheduling a meter reading.
This program replaces any previous arrangements you may have had with NB Power.
Tenant Confidentiality Assured
In the event a tenant’s electrical power is disconnected because of non-payment, you will not be notified nor will meters be automatically transferred to your name. This is because of NB Power’s strict policy regarding account information confidentiality.
