How to read a gas meter
- Digital meter readings – Read the numbers displayed from left to right and ignore any in red or in a red box. Remember to note down whether your reading is in cubic feet or meters, which is usually indicated as ft3 or m3.
- Dial meter readings – Your gas meter may have a number of different dials on it but for readings, only the bottom row is required. Simply read the numbers being pointed at on each dial from left to right, remembering that each one moves in the opposite direction to the one before it. If the pointer is between 2 numbers, choose the lowest. If pointing at an exact number, check the next dial – if this is nine, subtract one from the previous dial.
Automated meter readers (AMRs).
Automated meter readers are a form of building monitoring technology. These sensors can be easily retrofitted onto any utility meter to provide real-time consumption data that is reflected on a central management dashboard. This information can be used for accurate and simplified billing and consumption reporting.
Benefits of AMRs
- More accurate and efficient utility meter reading
- Real-time billing information reduces estimated readings and re-billing cost
- Reduced billing errors and disputes
- Helps manager identify potential energy efficiencies
Sub-Metering Solutions
For landlords and managers of multi-site meters, sub-metering solutions simplify energy management and billing.
Sub-metering for multi-tenant properties
Sub-metering for large business premises

My electricity meter reading is blank, what should I do?
Electricity meters often go into a ‘sleep mode’ which could mean that they display a blank screen. In these situations, simply press a button on the main panel to wake the meter up. Smart meters may require you to scroll through various different screens before you reach the readings page.
Sometimes a blank screen could mean the meter is faulty. If the above steps do not work, you should contact your energy provider and they will guide you through what to do next.
