This technology offers real-time information, improves the accuracy of billing and allows for the timely detection of failures or irregularities.\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>We recommend reading:<a href=\"https:\/\/deultimominuto.net\/nacionales\/imponen-coercion-a-ciudadano-que-manipulo-medidor\/\">Coercion imposed on citizen who tampered with Edeeste's electric meter<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\nAs part of its benefits, the system incorporates a <em>display<\/em> or visible panel that allows customers to <strong>monitor their electricity consumption<\/strong> in real time, promoting a <strong>more efficient use<\/strong> of energy and encouraging savings.\n\n<strong>Edeeste<\/strong>&nbsp;calls on citizens to&nbsp;<strong>not allow the manipulation<\/strong>&nbsp;of these devices by unauthorized persons. The system has&nbsp;<strong>security mechanisms<\/strong>&nbsp;that, in the event of any attempt at alteration, are automatically activated, causing the interruption of service in the community where it is installed, as a&nbsp;<strong>protective measure<\/strong>. Therefore, users are urged to safeguard these infrastructures, whose correct operation benefits everyone.\n\nLikewise, the SMCA allows remote reconnection of the service, <strong>significantly reducing<\/strong> waiting times for customers and <strong>optimizing operational resources<\/strong> of the company, by reducing the need for technical teams to travel.\n\nIn that same order, Edeeste advances in the massification of the&nbsp;<strong>prepaid system<\/strong>&nbsp;through this technology, facilitating access to customers who do not have a traditional payment culture or are not accustomed to conventional billing. As part of this strategy, the company&nbsp;<strong>expands its recharge channels<\/strong>&nbsp;to guarantee greater&nbsp;<strong>accessibility, convenience and efficiency<\/strong>&nbsp;in the service.\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>You can also read:<a href=\"https:\/\/deultimominuto.net\/nacionales\/edeeste-perdidas-manipulacion\/\">EDEESTE: Losses due to illegal manipulation exceed RD$842 million in 2025<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\nSimilarly, the company projects a significant expansion of this system through programs developed with <strong>multilateral organizations<\/strong> and its own projects focused on reducing losses.
