Highland Council have posted a reminder that the Radio Teleswitching System (RTS) is scheduled to be turned off on Monday 30 June.
Electricity meters which are controlled by RTS need to be replaced by a smart meter by that date.
RTS is usually used in homes with electric storage heaters, panel heaters, wet electric heating, and immersion heaters. Failure to change to a smart meter means such hardware may not operate correctly.
Anyone who has RTS and has not yet heard from their supplier is urged to contact them.
