Then just enter the other into the electricity night low box.
Digital electric meter flashing red.
The only thing that s worth noting is if you book a smart meter exchange both your electric and gas meter will be exchanged.
Same with private card meters.
Either 1 or 2 reading will be flashing enter this one into the electricity day normal box on the meter reading form.
The voltage output from this divider is passed along the green.
The arduino can be programmed to work out the flashing rate and depending on that rate open or close relays to control appliances.
Hey derek great to hear this has been resolved for you.
The meter has what appears to be two leds on it right next to each other.
A voltage divider is made with the light dependent resistor and a 10k resistor.
Last month my electric supplier got siemens in to fit a new electric meter.
Here reading 1 is 19937 and reading 2 is 11362.
Electric meter flashing 888888 posted by charlie1 a year ago just gone to submit my meter readings and my electric one is flashing all 888888 but still a red supply light flashin.

This has only happened since the installation.
Pictured above is a schematic of how an arduino uno can be used to detect if the electricity meter led is on or off.
The household electric consumption meter now shows an error message red every few seconds and when there is only a light load the red light that normally flashes or is off is now on solidly.
Apparently it s so you can see if the meter is being bypassed if you walk in and see there s a solid red light and it s obvious there s electricity being used then you know there s something not right.
Once you find the electric meter you will notice a small lcd screen which flashes various numbers and letters during normal operation.
Keep your eyes on the meter.

The guy removed the old meter which was a big black box with revolving digital readout and replaced it with a cute dinky one that has an lcd digital readout.
It will cycle through this flashing routine in about 10 15 seconds.
