It is possible and common to have a lease in several people's names, but have a utility bill in only one person's name. For example, in a roommate situation, it is typical for all roommates to be on the lease. It is also typical for a utility company to prefer to work with only one customer, and therefore one roommate will take responsibility and contract with the power company. Then, the remaining roommates will agree to reimburse that roommate for the utility payments.

Only the person who contract with the utility is responsible to them. The remaining roommates are responsible to that roommate, not directly to the utility company.

A utility company may not collect any debt that was discharged in a Chapter 7/13 bankruptcy.

How do I remove my hydro meter?

In North America you don't. If the utility company catches you tampering with their meter you could be subjected to a fine and in extreme cases a disconnection from their supply. Once the seal is broken and the meter reader sees the broken seal it is reported to the utility company right away. If you need to get it removed for legitimate reasons call the utility company and they will remove it for you. In certain cases the utility company will allow approved contractors to pull the meter but the contractor has to abide by the utility company's rules.
