  • I'm having a same problem, this month my electricy use was 5 times what it should be , and i know damn well i have not used all that power. I turned off the mains at the fuse box on saturday morning, and returned saturday afternoon and the usage has gone up again, and my electric meter's little red light was still flashing away. What does this mean???? The fuse box is inside my flat by the way.........

    It means that either you are reading the wrong meter, or something is connected via your meter to an adjoining property, and not via your own CU.
    You say that the CU is inside your property, but where is the meter?
    Are you sure that you are reading your own meter?
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)
