Is there any reason left not to go smart meter?

    Id probably take a picture of meter reading after removal. Maybe new meter reading too. Someone on the electrical forum got a huge bill there after a upgrade . Not sure how that's playing out atm

    Supply fuses are standardized ie; 80A for a basic 12kva so unlikely they would just up it like that

    There's more to a supply upgrade than simply bumping esbn fuse

    So I'm on EV smart rate with Energia and I take monthly readings to compare with inverter stats, but this month I noticed the following (all the following is expected)

    A+T1 4826 (night)
    A+T2 34 (day)
    A-1 2360 (export)

    But then I also noticed A+T3 == 1 ??

    I don't know what this one is recording. EV Smart rate only has two time periods 2-6am and outside that time? so why would A+T3 record anything?
    My only guess is it still records 3 slots — the 3rd being a peak time period which Energia ignore/add to T2 value. And the reason is so low is due to me rarely every using grid electrcicity in that time period?
    Anyone seen similar ?

    When the DN smart meter gets activated, it gets reconfigured to show day/night/peak.

    But when your on the smart plan they get the 30 minute intervals.
