The PJB

The PJB is a standard electrical distribution and fabricated metal box securely mounted onto a municipal kiosk or other standard infrastructure which contains various wiring connections and includes the smart prepaid meters. Each Junction Box contains between 8 to 10 prepaid meters. The PJB solves various problems encountered in the energy distribution network and electricity recovery of monthly utility payments. This technology integrates passive junction box functions with electronic module functions and uses a systematic approach which integrates the control and distribution of electricity

The benefits of the Smart PJB is to monitor the network to know in real time:

  • Consumption and losses
  • Detection of fraud & illegal connections resulting in loss of revenue to SNEL
  • Related problems at the obsolescence of the network
  • Limit the subscribed power of customersper use
  • Ensure precise and transparent invoicing and offer the terms of electronic payments to provide reliable and innovative services, adapted to customer needs
  • Compact meter design with British Standard layout
  • Easy to install and ideal for new reticulation as well as retrofitting of credit meters with BS footprints
