Abstract

The invention concerns a device (10) for controlling the delivery of a utility e.g. electricity to a subscriber. The device comprises a code generator (32) operating according to a certain algorithm, means (20) for loading a value code by the subscriber, means (34) for comparing the generated code and the entered value code and an element (44) for cutting off the supply of a utility. When the subscriber has paid the invoice of the utility company, the utility company supplies the subscriber with a value code which has been generated according to the same algorithm as the code generated in the device. The value code comprises a period length code which bears a relation to the period which has been paid for. The subscriber loads the value code supplied by the utility company into the device (10) where the codes are compared. If the codes coincide, supply of the utility will be continued for the next period. If the codes do not coincide, the supply of utility is cut off automatically.
