Economy 7 (Day/Night) Meters have two rows of numbers - so as to separately record the electricity used during both day and night.
These rows may be labelled as:
• Day and Night
• 1/I (Day) and 2/II (Night)
• Low (Night) and Normal (Day)
To read this type of meter:
• For each row, read the numbers from left to right, including any zeros.
• Ignore any numbers after the decimal point and any number which appears in red.
For more details, check out the "How to read your meter" guide in our key documents section.
