Basically, there is the law and then there is utility company policy. The law states that if someone or something is on your property (whether you rent or own) and you don't want them (or it) there, you have a right to get that person-or that device- off your property. The utility's easement typically only covers maintenance and access to read your meter, NOT installation of a communications device on the side of your home. The utility messed up when it failed to ask permission, and now they are suffering a predictable backlash against their arrogant policy of "implied consent." The utility is NOT the government (despite what they may think)- they are a private party bound by local, state, and federal law. They can respond to you refusing access for smart meter installation or having your meter swapped out in several ways. They may threaten you with jail, service disconnection, or fines, but they are bluffing and their threat can and will cost them dearly in Court ! They cannot have you arrested unless they can prove you were trying to defraud them by tampering but they are responsible for Senior Citizen Health Issues if they Purposely installed an instrument that can cause harm. They cannot disconnect the service of a paying customer according to state utilities code. They can only charge you more if your state PUC allows them to do so, and this is typically a lengthy process. So ignore their threats, stand your ground, and have that analog put back in its rightful place- on the side of your home where they now have a Smart Meter ! Then lock it up! This is what we Seniors received when asking if the Power Company is compelled to change the Smart Meter... But there is more upon your help in this matter. Thank You Robert Opperman
