Certified Provider
Fully Accredited & Committed to Safety
Every electricity connection we deliver meets the highest industry standards. Worker safety, public safety, environmental responsibility, and project compliance from planning to sign-off.
Unmetered connections for street lighting, traffic signs, and public realm infrastructure. We coordinate the DNO, supplier, and certificate agent as one service.
Every unmetered supply follows a clear, coordinated sequence. Here is exactly what happens at each stage.
An unmetered supply is an electricity connection where consumption is settled on a deemed basis rather than by physical meter. Consumption is calculated from the rated wattage of each connected item and its estimated annual burning hours. This approach is standard for street lighting, traffic management signals, and other public realm infrastructure. Unmetered supplies require a three-party coordination process involving the DNO, the electricity supplier, and an accredited metering agent to issue the Unmetered Supplies Certificate.
The Unmetered Supplies Certificate is the key document that enables the supply to be registered. It is produced by an accredited metering agent based on a schedule of all connected equipment, including lamp wattage, control gear, and operating schedule. USP coordinates all three parties: the DNO for the physical connection, the electricity supplier for billing registration, and the metering agent for the certificate. The three-party process is managed as a single coordinated service.
On new residential and commercial developments, the developer installs the street lighting columns, lanterns, and underground cabling as part of the highway adoption package. USP installs the electricity supply infrastructure to serve the lighting, coordinating with the lighting contractor on the connection point and switch positions. The supply is registered as unmetered before energisation, with the certificate and supplier registration in place for handover to the highway authority.
Many public realm EV charging sites require both a metered supply for the charge point operator and an unmetered supply for the site lighting and ancillary infrastructure. USP delivers both connections under one contract, designing the metered and unmetered infrastructure together to minimise civil works and ensure the two supplies are correctly separated for billing and adoption purposes.

I contacted USP and within minutes had a chat with Justin who described exactly how the job would be done and provided a comprehensive quote including labour and materials and was able to start the work in just 7 days. Justin and his team were brilliant and did an amazing job. I can highly recommend USP.
Jack and Joel were absolutely amazing this morning and really put themselves out to dig a hole without having to dig another hole in my drive. More work for them but one happy customer.
From the initial quote through to work completion, Justin and his work partner were a mix of professional, knowledgeable, good-humoured, and clear in all explained (I felt an instant ease to agree to the work). The work itself was excellent and they left the place immaculate!
George and Jack come out today to move a gas meter. It wasn't a straightforward job, but they both took time to talk me through what they were doing and what the next steps are. Very friendly and polite and thought about the needs of our family.
Jack and George are great.
Bang on time, completed the work perfectly, no issues. Left the meter really neatly finished. Jack and Joel were very courteous and did a great job.
George and Jack turned up and did a first class job, very friendly and professional. Great job lads.
Jack and Joel were brilliant. Very polite, worked to my highest expectations. Left the area as clean and tidy, as was possible. And explained every step of the process to me, answering any questions I had.
Fantastic work from Jack and Johl.
