How to Read Your Meter

If a hand is right on a number and you don't know if it has passed or not, look at the dial to the right. Has the hand passed to 0?

If this dial on the right has passed 0, write down the number the hand on the left is pointing to. In this case "7".

If the dial on the right has not passed 0, write down the number the dial on the left has just passed. In this case "6"

Some of the hands turn right and some turn left. To find the amount of kilowatthours you have used, subtract last month's reading from the current month's reading.

Example:
46372 New Reading
-45109 Last Reading
1263 Amount of kilowatthours you have used
