About the meter having reached the use by date.
I read this can be anything up to 40 years ie the certifications for this when it ends and varies depending on the make/type I guess
How does one identify the end of the certification date on their old style, ie non 'smart' , meter?
The link I posted from Citizens s advice is good but it does not detail the above.
Thanks
Many thanks
So the "grey area" could be challenged IMHO??
I will investigate further as many sites state that the certification is from 10 to 40 years.
Thanks again, your help is appreciated..
You are making claims and statements that so far you have failed to substantiate with any material facts.
@dolor
I was in a rush this morning and could not recall the bit about the "grey area" - You aimed your post at me even though I put the 'grey area' in quotes. Therefore I await your response friend and I've posted again as I could nt recall where I saw the bit about the "grey area" it was stated by another poster here, so you may want to target your post at that poster
I've posted a link as well re 40 years
Then another poster kindly posted a gov link re 40 years certifications
So what "claims" did I "failed to substantiate" and where does it say that posters have to "substantiate" comments?
What "period! are you referring to?
Thanks

If you need to replace your old-style meter because it’s unsafe, you might not be able to refuse a smart meter. This is because not many old-style meters are made now - your supplier might not have any in stock.'I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA).

It's a shame that @System couldn't havre left a post here to say so as newbies can be confused by these actions.
