I don't think that's possible. Meters don't contain an on/off switch they simply monitor power usage. A 200 Amp switch is pretty big.
What they can do is communicate with the new appliances that have smart technology. The theory is that they can set the temp in your fridge, A/C, etc. They can also track usage and generate trends for the power company to regulate generation.
These women didn't interfere physically with the installation they simply didn't open the gate. NOT grounds for an arrest. Filming the cops should be done at EVERY arrest or confrontation.
The city provides the electricity so they own the meters and can change to whatever they want. It sucks but if you live in a place where you allow the govt to control such things then the govt controls them and not you.

They can cut your power any time. My mom lives in El Paso and has these meters. One for the hot water heater and AC and another for the rest. A couple of months ago she missed a payment and they called her on the phone. She didn’t have the money to pay to when the operator hung up the power went off. My mom called me and I gave her my credit card. She called in and paid. They told her to go out to the meter and press a button on the front of the meter. She did and they power was restored.
