Hi! We’re Black Cap and we’re here to help!


We’re an approved contractor for AES Ohio.
Black Cap is a utility service provider operating in Ohio. Black Cap field technicians provide safe and efficient service on behalf of your electrical power provider. We read meters and turn the power on and off when there is a change in the billing customer, an upgrade to your existing meter, payment due, or to prevent a hazard. Our technicians are skilled in meter services but only have access to limited information about your service and billing history.
If you are not sure why we are at your house today, call your electric utility provider’s customer service line for clarification.
Your electric utility is in the process of upgrading the meters of all the customers in your geographic area. You may have received notice of this change on your bill or by automated call to the phone number on file.
If your meter is being upgraded you will soon enjoy:
more timely and accurate bills
fewer outages
faster reconnections
For the electric utility company, these new meters will provide much more detailed data about customer energy usage that will reduce electricity theft, allow for more efficient power restoration after storms, and improve generation efficiency to make use of renewable energy sources.
