Frequently Asked Questions – ESID Lookup
If the ESID lookup says “meter not found” it’s likely because your service address is new construction. The meter is new and the utility hasn’t assigned an ESID.
For new construction you will have a construction meter or temporary meter. Once construction is compete, the builder will ask the local utility company to perform a new meter set. Your meter will be active in the lookup within 24 hours.
If the ESID Lookup says “meter inactive” it means the utility company has retired the ESID. You’ll need to contact the utility company to have a new ESID assigned.
