We hope your new smart meters are so smart, you never need to take
another meter reading. That’s the plan. But it’s useful to know how to
read them just in case you need to. Here’s how:
For electricity
Your electricity reading is
normally the default setting
onthe meter’s display screen.
If it’s not the default on your
meter’s screen, keep pressing
the A or OK button until you see
Total Act Import.
Your reading will be shown in
kWh and we only need the units
before the decimal point.
If you have a 2-rate meter:
When the screen is o, press
B for two seconds to bring up
theirst rate for your meter.
It will be labelled Rate 01 and
the reading will be in the bottom
right corner, in kWh (kilowatt
hours). Make a note of the
reading and press A to move
tothe next reading. That will
belabelled Rate 02.
The meter can show a variety
ofdierent information, so
check the label on the screen
says Rate01 or Rate 02, and
theunit is kWh, not Varh.
