Re: Smart Meters

There was an article on smart meters last night on watchdog re fires. When it does eventually happen ask the installer for his credentials. What was brought up last night was that the "tails" i.e. the cables going to the meter have to be connected tightly.There was an instance where they were loose.If there is a loose connection there is a potential to spark and cause a fire . When eventually I get them I will personally check the gas and electrical connections. The problem is that the installers are told to do so many in a day and if they are rushing there could be loose connections.
