Just moving to octopus energy & they are asking for meter readings,   when I scroll through the menu I  can see the total (00074299) but am unable to determine the day/ night   split.( I am aware this is a commercial meter as are octopus).  so can anyone help ? it does have a sender on it for remote reading.

    This link might help:

    I think that you might need to do some simple subtraction to get your R2 reading.

    Watch out for the decimal points - the reading you have above I think is 00074(decimal)299

    Double check which is R1 and which is R2 -  during the day one will advance

    OK thanks for you help,,I have found An old bill,  and think Iv'e worked out how to read. the reading 00074299 ,then take the next reading 00072498 from the first reading gives the split.    does this sound right?
    the readings on the old bill are 600680 day. and 11332.night  although both of these are estimates (not my bill so not worried they are estimated)

    It looks like the meter has been changed since that old bill was produced.
    As my earlier post look for the decimal point .   Edit -  having looked at Dolor's link there doesn't appear to be one.

    You say you are just moving to Octopus how did you manage to give readings to your present supplier if you couldn't read the meter ?

    hi Robin9 the meter was changed in 2015  (card in meter box). this is my new house , Total energy sent estimated bills in the wrong name but I was using that as a guide (Although the gas bill was in my name is spot on) both are smart meters)
