What should the landlord do if he tampers with the electricity meter?

Legal analysis: If you suspect that the landlord has tampered with the meter, you can apply to the power supply department or quality inspection agency for testing the meter. If there is a problem with the electric meter, the power supply department or quality inspection agency will issue relevant appraisal conclusion documents and determine that the electric meter is unqualified. The landlord must change the meter at this time.

Of course, you can also install a monitoring probe to monitor the periphery of the meter, get the first-hand materials of the landlord tampering with the meter, and then negotiate with the landlord.
