Night tariff clocks that drifted after a power cut
A meter clock is a small face with large consequences. After March cuts, we keep finding night bands that no longer match the sun.
Several Batumi buildings still keep a mechanical or poorly backed clock on a tariff meter. A cut that lasts long enough leaves that clock behind the wall clock in the engineer’s office. The night register then eats lunch. The owner sees a “night” column that looks industrious at noon and accuses staff of running laundry in secret.
A tariff band and clock check is a short visit: photograph the meter time against a watch, copy both registers, set them beside the invoice. We do not break seals. We hand you a page that an electrician or the supplier can act on.
If the clock is correct, the next question is whether loads are genuinely on the night circuit. That is a different visit, with longer hours and a list of contactors. Mixing the two in one angry afternoon is how people pay twice for the same cupboard.
