  • For future reference (Source: Octopus Energy Smart Meter Reading Guide). L&G has a number of SMETS2 meter models all annotated E470.




    Smart meters have 4 index registers. Any reading shown on the IHD is the total of all the 4 registers that have been used since the meter was first installed.

    Not got a smart meter yet?
    Smart meters send us your meter readings automatically, which means you never receive estimated bills.
