Meter Supply Numbers
| GAS Meter Point Reference Number (MPR) | |||||||||||||||||||
|
MPR stands for Meter point Reference. This number is found on your last gas bill and consists of one long number with up to 10 digits. It may be located somewhere at the top or bottom of the bill. The number does not contain any letters.. Example: Note that a new validation system can be activated from the results pages which usually enables your application to be validated from your postcode, without the need for the meter reference numbers. This is not always the case so it can help if you have these numbers handy. If you do not have a
previous bill, you can obtain your MPR number by telephoning
TRANSCO on 0870 6081524. |

| ELECTRICITY Supply Number (MPAN) | |||||||||||||||||||
MPAN stands for Metering Point Administration Number. It provides a unique identity reference number for your electricity meter which provides certain information as shown in the example below: The number is contained inside a series of 7 small boxes with a capital S in front. It may be located in the bottom left corner or sometimes top right, somewhere on your last electricity bill. It's sometimes quite small print and difficult to find, but when you see a set of numbers in some boxes, with a capital S in front, then you have found it. Example:
There are similar boxes on the application forms where the above numbers can be entered. Note that a new validation system can be
activated from the results pages which usually enables your
application to be validated from your postcode, without the
need for the meter reference numbers. This is not always the
case so it can help if you have these numbers handy. If you do not have the top row numbers,
enter 01 in the first box if you have a standard meter, or
02 for an Economy 7 meter, then enter zeros in boxes two and
three. The bottom row (13 numbers) are essential in order
to make a transfer. When it is necessary to send us the number
by email, please use the following format: |
