Radio Teleswitch

Understanding Radio Teleswitch (RTS) metering and what the switch-off means for people.

The Radio Teleswitch (RTS) service is being gradually retired and it is important for stakeholders to understand what this means for the people you support and how you can help them take action before their meter is affected.

It is vital that anyone with an RTS meter should contact their supplier urgently, as the service is being actively phased out.
