A.Dear Sir,
Electrical submetering involves the installation power meters (also called power monitors, electrical meters, or energy monitors) that can measure energy usage after it reaches the primary utility meter. Submetering offers the ability to monitor energy usage for individual tenants, departments, pieces of equipment or other loads to account for their actual energy usage.
The Benefits of Submetering
Accurate energy monitoring, real-time energy consumption
Granular in-depth review of facility energy data
Better informed to make decisions that can help optimize energy performance
Ability to record actual energy usage (no estimates)
Comparison of usage across similar facilities over time
Ability to identify and eliminate wasted energy
Tenant Submetering
In non-submetered commercial and residential buildings, tenants are typically billed on square footage of rented space. In this scenario, the landlord receives an electrical bill for the entire facility and bills each tenant based on the amount of space they rent. The problem here is that tenants are not billed based on consumption behavior, but rather they are billed based on the total consumption of the rest of the tenants.
Please give me Rank 5.

A.Hi Sourav,
I suggest you to apply a new meter instead sub-meter as the tenant is not eligible to avail the same.
Thanks
