ELECTRICITY BILL

As all of you will be aware that in Faridabad electricity meters are fixed outside the house by electricity board. Some electricity deptt personel visited one of my relatives who lives in faridabad, about 2 years back.
They got it checked by some third party and said that your meter is running 65% slow. They imposed a penalty of Rs. 12000/-. My relative filed a case in court and took stay. Last month case was dismissed by Court. Now it's in appeal.

Now, my question are they legally right as

1. Meter was checked by them when it was installed.

2. It was fixed outside house by them to avoid theft by consumer.

3. They have given in their report that meter was not tempered.

4. We have given proof that average bill was almost same for last 2 years.

Please provide me some case laws of the same cases.
