They can not put the "SMART METER" on a house with Solar Power as the "SMART METERS" can not feed the power back in to the grid, thus the meters are not that SMART. They are just trying to put a people out of work by not having to go to the houses to read the meters as the "SMART METER" sends data back to the power company at the bill payers expense.
We got a letter to say that they are installing a "SMART METER" between the 28th March and 8th April between 8:00am and 5:00pm. They are basically saying they are going to turn the power off at anytime and bad luck if don't turn off your equipment and it breaks. Shambles I say, as whois home for 2 weeks turning everything off everyday.
