Smart meters are special tools that help people understand how much electricity they are using at their homes. These helpful gadgets can provide a clear picture of exactly how much power your household consumes on a daily basis. If you are going to install a new smart meter, be cautious and safe.
Electricity can be dangerous when working with it. Make sure to get a grown up to help you with this task. They know how to be safe and can help you do what you’re supposed to do.
Before you launch, consult with those who provide electricity to your residence. They will provide you additional instructions on how to install a new meter. Every home is a bit different, so it’s good to ask questions.
Find out about the new smart meter with your electric company. They will tell you precisely what you need to do. Some companies might even want to come in and install the meter themselves.
This is the key step! Disconnect all power supplies. This protects you and your family from being injured. Adults should verify that everything is truly off.
Gently pull the old meter out from where it is fitted. You should have an adult help you with this part. They’ll know how to unscrew it and take it safely down.
Take the new smart meter and place it in the same exact spot as the last one. Make sure it fits just right. It should not be loose or where it moves.
