Understanding Supply Numbers - Utility Business Services
Utility Business Services. Putting the Client First.
A Meter Point Administration Number (MPAN), also known as Supply Number or S-Number, is a 21-digit reference used in the UK to uniquely identify electricity supply points.
Your MPAN will be required to enable you to transfer electricity supplier(s). You can do this in number of ways:
- MPAN from existing energy bill : If you have an existing electricity bill for your property you should be able to find your MPAN. MPANs are often printed at the bottom of the first page of your bill or on the reverse of the front page.
- MPAN from a DNO MPAS Service: You can obtain your MPAN from the Distribution Network Operator (DNO) who is responsible for the distribution network for your area (see table below). If you telephone the Distribution company for your area they will be able to provide you with the 13 digit MPAN core over the telephone. In most cases this should be enough information to arrange the transfer of your electricity supply, it is also worthwhile asking that they send the information to you - that way you will also receive the full MPAN.
- Contact Utility Business Services and we can obtain your MPAN on your behalf.
