Hi, I have just had a new digital electric meter fitted and my electric consumption has doubled.
We are apparently using 22 units a day the electric company has said which they say seems high for our standard 3 bedroom house. On our previous bills it worked out 13 - 15 units a day.
Also, while we have been checking the meter over the last 2 days we noticed that something strange happens - if all the lights are off and we then turn on the kitchen or bathroom lights and then turn them off a minute or so later, the meter speeds up! and then if we immediately turn another rooms lights on and then off a minute or so later, the meter runs very slow.
Would there be a problem with the meter or ould there be a problem with our wiring??
Any answers greatly welcome.
