    You possibly have got the wrong message from the strata manager.

    Firstly you are correct that old meters do not need to be replaced. They are not strata property, they are the property of the electricity supplier. The electricity supplier may replace your meter if you go to a tariff that requires smart metering.

    The strata manager is possibly suggesting that the entire metering board is replaced. Installations that are 50 years old use outdated components. At some stage the meter board will need to be replaced so today is probably a good day.

    The electricity supplier will provide the electrician with new meters to install. These meters will be smart meters as that’s the standard now.
