What is a meter reading?
Written by Karl Villanueva

We use the meter reading to determine your electricity consumption.
For this, we calculate the difference between the last and current meter reading.
For example:
- On January 1, your electricity meter shows 1234 kWh
- On February 1 your electricity meter shows 1345 kWh
- That means your electricity consumption for the month of January is 111 kWh
(1345 kWh - 1234 kWh)
All you have to do is locate your meter and read the numbers, which are in kilowatt hours (kWh).
