How to read an Economy 7 electricity smart meter with a green 'A' and grey 'B' button
It looks like you have a Landis and Gyr (L&G) smart meter. Follow these steps to read the two rates on your electricity meter:
Rate 1
Your Rate 1 meter reading is on the front screen, so there's no need to press any buttons. This screen will say 'R1' or '01 Act Imp'.
Just write down the numbers you see in front of the ‘KWh’ – this is your rate 1 reading.
Rate 2
- Press and hold the grey 'B' button
- Keep holding the grey button, while you press the green button too
- You will now see a screen that says 'R2' or '02 Act Imp'
- Write down the numbers you see in front of the ‘KWh’ – this is your Rate 2 reading.
