We got one of those new Smart meters stuffed down our throat by our friendly energy supplier Edenorte.
So after 2 days I checked the meter and to my stupefaction the meter read 70 kw, a lot higher than normal.
During those 2 days the poolpump had worked for around 4 hours a day, so I told the gardener not to use the pump for the next 2 days, to see the difference.
Well, the meter immediately compensated for using less luz, by running faster as the usage was exactly the same.
If that is not smart, I do not know what is. Well at least for Edenorte.
Luckily enough the owner of the house was in the country, and we switched over the account to my name. At least I can go and complain now.
