How to Upgrade Your Prepaid Meter

Please Note: Users who fail to update their meters before November 2024 won’t be able to recharge their prepaid meters.

NERC has issued a directive urging electricity consumers nationwide to update their prepaid meters.
For Ikeja Electric consumers, here is the step to upgrade the meter.
  • To upgrade your meter, you need a Key Change Token-KCT (a special ‘reset’ token) to be loaded on your meter.
  • To get this token, you will need to first link your NIN (National Identification Number) to your meter at www.smartkyc.ikejaelectric.com/nin.
  • You will receive three (3) sets of 20-digit tokens the first time you vend after linking your NIN. If you didn’t not receive the token after linking your NIN, use this link https://www.ikejaelectric.com/kctcheck/ to generate the code but ensure you recharge first.
  • Input the first set of 20-digit tokens (KCT 1); this will wipe off the old meter settings. Input the second set of 20-digit tokens (KCT 2), then upgrade your meter to the new STS platform. The last 20-digit tokens will load the purchased energy value into the meter
