  1. No one hurt

    Made Jul 16, 2018, sent to the company Aug 28, 2018, published by CPSC Sep 12, 2018

    The product, in the report: CPS smart meter that tells how much energy has been used by CPS energy customer.

    I am writing because i believe the smart meter on my CPS energy box was responsible for a fire at my home. The only details that i have are that after the firemen left my home CPS energy came and disconnected the electricity by wire to my hime and told me until i had a master electeician come out and fix the problem i wouldnt have electricity. 3 electricians came out and said the same thing...it originated from the smart meter box provided by CPSenergy. The fire occured at [REDACTED] on June 17, 2018 at 6AM. I would love to be able to provide a picture but it doesnt look likethis text box will let me.
