Can an electric transformer send too much electricity to the meter causing a high electric bill?

An electric transformer does not send electricity to the meter it supplies a source of power that is requested by the demand of the load. The meter is a device which totals the amount of power that you use. This is the amount that you are billed for. If your electrical bill is high only you can reduce it by decreasing the load demand.
