meter

Hi, I cannot work out how to get a peak reading from my electricity meter from a house I have recently moved into. The setup is shown below. The meter is a Landis+Gyr E110. The display cycles through two numbers - one shows a number currently around 13600, and the other shows the default test...

I moved to UK recently and my rented flat has Horstmann Radio Telemeter Series 2A electricity meter. However, I have been asking both my electricity provider SSE and my Landlord on a query for which they are not having answers. 1. Does the meter consider all appliances usage during Off peak...

Hi all, We bough new build house with 4 solar panels which are not plugged to the grid. We are wondering how to understand the readings which are on it. For example currently it shows 08.3 kWh unit. What would that be in Watts? All the calculators ask me to put kWh and time which is confusing...

Just had the annual boiler service and the engineers report has come from the cover company stating we need to have remedial work completed to prevent any potential claims in the future being declined on our policy. Remedial work required: double anaconda on the meter. I presume this means the...

Hi, I recently had a fused spur plate replaced with a regular single switched socket, as the spur wasn't being used for anything (must have been an old storage heater which had since been removed). When the electrician first put it in it didn't actually work, and since he only came to replace a...

Hi Our electricity meter is under the stairs, secured to a board which is mounted on battens fixed to separate battens on a plastered wall (see photo). To make better use of the space and make it look tidier with more shelves, I'd like to line the cupboard with plywood. IMG_0044 by Soane...

I am in the process of moving into a house where both gas and electric supplies have smart meters. The previous occupier had broadband and both meters could be read remotely. However, there is currently no broadband at the house and I wish to supply initial meter readings taken manually, to set...

Where is the bonding cable to be attached to the gas pipe now that the gas meter has been moved? The old bonding was attached to a forged steel 90% elbow on the top of the meter but the new meter has 22mm copper going in to the meter top. You can see where the olde worlde fuse box was sited and...

It is not the case that the homeowner needs their own electrician present on the the day that the team arrive to relocate the meter. It appears that there is a certain discretion allowable.

Am getting my meters moved. 500 thk wall - made up of 100 conc. block, 50 void, 350 breeze. re the 38mm hole that takes the gas pipe (in a plastic duct) from the proposed wall mounted meter cab to a ground floor bathroom. Does this hole have to be drilled level? Or can it be drilled to falls...

Want to put meter between three phase box and new metered supply. Spark saying just use one of phases to new box with meter between. Is this correct?

I have an unbranded WiFi thermostat labelled rn004. I'm replacing a Danfoss rmt 230. 1) The new stat has 2 thin white wires coming from the side, around 5cm long each. Are these for extra temperature readings from floor etc? If so, how do I not use\bypass them so I can just use internal...

The meter is moving from a car port to the front of the house. The gas people want a 38mm hole & duct thru the wall (the standard off-the-shelf plastic waste water pipe). WPD (electricity infrastructure) say that it's for my supplier to stipulate what size hole is required for the meter tails...

Hi All, Recently moved into a property and need to fix the internal stopcock to the property as its siezed. Had a look at the external stopcock and its a type i've never seen before? There is a black plastic key in the meter box but it is rounded off so doesnt do anything Does anyone know...

The distance between a new CU and the existing meter will be more than 2m (probably closer to 5m), do I need a trip/isolator between them?

Hi there. I've got a simple question about isolator switches like this Wylex 100A one. Their datasheet says: "It’s safer because the supply tails are fixed and finalised in a sealed unit – instead of being left hanging loose ready to connect to the meter." but their diagram shows it between...

Just looked at our electricity usage for the last 12 months, and it is 5,145 kWhs. Just wondering how this compares to others on here? My place is a 4 Bedroom detached dormer bungalow, Two Electric Ovens & Induction Hob, All LED Lighting, UPS protected network equipment/4 PoE IP cams running...

Out of these three Multi Function Testers, what would be your pick and why? And what are people using as their daily MFT?

Just though I would see how much Power and Current I could pull with all my devices in my house switch on. Photo below is from the dashboard of my Efergy Engage online whole-house energy monitor. My Real Time Energy Usage by eveares posted 17 Jun 2016 at 8:47 PM Also worth noting that there...

Hi I have a question regarding the movement or rather non movement of a gas meter. My meter is connect to a courtyard wall at the side of my house, this wall is due to be demolished and rebuilt with a block cavity wall. National grid have said that i have to have the gas supply disconnected...
