Available Models & Configurations
Prepaid Electricity Meter — STS Token (Model DDSD2821 with Split CIU)
The DDSD2821 is an STS-compliant single-phase prepaid electricity meter featuring a split-unit architecture designed for rental properties, housing developments, and commercial units in Pakistan. The tamper-resistant meter body installs safely in an outdoor electrical panel or utility riser, while the indoor Customer Interface Unit (CIU) provides a convenient numeric keypad and display inside the home. Tenants obtain an encrypted 20-digit STS token and type it into the indoor CIU to replenish electricity credit. An internal latching relay disconnects power automatically when credit depletes and reconnects immediately upon token entry.
- Split-unit architecture with convenient indoor CIU keypad & display
- 20-digit encrypted STS token standard for reliable recharge
- Audible and visual low-balance warning alerts before disconnection
Prepaid Electricity Meter — IC Card (Model DDSY6661)
The DDSY6661 is a single-phase electronic prepaid electricity meter with an integrated smart card slot, engineered for apartments, commercial plazas, and managed rental properties across Pakistan. Tenants load electricity credit onto their physical IC card at the property management office or vending terminal, then insert the card into the meter to instantly transfer kilowatt-hours. The meter features a heavy-duty internal disconnect relay that automatically cuts power when credit is exhausted and restores it immediately upon insertion of a valid recharged card.
- Front-access smart IC card slot with instant balance transfer
- Built-in load control relay for automated supply cut-off and reconnection

Architecture Analysis
Why Choose Split-Unit CIU Electricity Metering?
Standard integrated electricity meters require tenants to access outdoor electrical panels to view balances or enter recharge codes. Vensora Model DDSD2821 separates the high-voltage meter from the consumer keypad.
Anti-Tamper & Security
The main meter body is locked inside a secure exterior cabinet or electrical riser. Tenants cannot tamper with mains terminals or attempt meter bypassing.
Indoor Tenant Comfort
The Customer Interface Unit (CIU) mounts on an indoor wall inside the tenant apartment or office, providing 24/7 visibility into kWh balance and audio-visual alarms.
Easy 20-Digit STS Entry
Tenants enter purchased 20-digit STS tokens from the comfort of their living room or office desk without climbing ladders or opening high-voltage distribution boards.
220V 5(60)A 50Hz, whereas the datasheet specifications table lists 230V. In accordance with Vensora's transparent claims policy, the exact nominal voltage is confirmed based on your local electrical utility specifications.Frequently Asked Questions
Prepaid Electricity Metering Questions
Can I recharge my meter using a mobile phone?
For STS prepaid meters, credit can be purchased on a mobile phone (via banking apps, mobile wallets, or USSD). However, the purchased credit is delivered as a 20-digit encrypted numeric token, which must then be entered into the meter keypad or indoor CIU. The phone purchase generates the token; it does not automatically transfer credit wirelessly to the meter unless a centralized utility AMI infrastructure is deployed.
What is the benefit of a split-unit electricity meter with a CIU?
In a split-unit setup (Model DDSD2821), the main meter body is installed in a secure exterior cabinet or electrical riser to prevent tampering and bypass. The compact Customer Interface Unit (CIU) is installed indoors inside the home or office. Consumers can monitor remaining kWh, check usage, receive low-credit alerts, and type in 20-digit recharge tokens without leaving their premises or opening the electrical distribution board.
What is the voltage rating for the STS prepaid electricity meter?
Reference sheets document 220V on the physical meter label and 230V in the technical specification table. To maintain strict governance, Vensora presents the nominal voltage rating as under technical confirmation for the 50Hz grid, ensuring exact compliance with your local electrical distribution network.
