smart meter - location
Options
Octopus are offering me a smart meter. It would be located in my kids play room in a boxed off cupboard. (old garage conversion many years back) for electricity one. Gas meter through the wall on outside.
I do plan at one point to turn this into a bedroom where we will move into it and our youngest (6) gets older and wants a bigger room can move into ours and been reading online about safety etc but there all from American sites.
I just wondered if I should just not bother and leave it as it is....
