They are the old style – with a spinning disk and a row of figures that keeps adding up usage – like a car’s odometer. The meter reading data on the bill can be compared to what the meter is showing. If a supply address is supplied with peak and off-peak electricity, there will be two meters and a time-switch. Please note that analogue meters can be used for electricity, gas and water.
Reading an analogue meter: Please note that the hands rotate in different directions. Standing directly in front of the meter, read the dials from left to right. If a hand is between two numbers, note the lower number, except when the hand is between 0 and 9 in which case, read 9. In the example on the right, the meter reads 04508.
