I wonder if txts for me to book a sm appointment will stop. I doubt it.
I would hope supplies would be denided for only 30 mins at a time.
Aren’t we lucky in this county to have 60A+ supplies.
How do Europe Cope!

That's a half truth, as the Load Limiting is enforced by the remote disconnection switch. "The load limit value for the customer is set at 5kW. When the customer exceeds the threshold value in the first instance power supply is cut. Customer reduces load and power can be reconnected. When the customer exceeds the value in the second instance, the customer again has to reduce household load to reconnect power."
Does that mean the meter can tell the prospective load while the supply is disconnected?
Obviously some re-wiring of consumer units in the UK would be necessary but this was already the cse with Economy Seven and similar where Off Peak circuits were switched ON and OFF by the DNO's time switch.
Re this post.Interesting, and starts to make some sense. The cost of installing smart meters cannot possibly be offset by the savings of not having so many employees reading meters - most people read their own meter. don't they? Maybe a desire to move everybody onto a Economy 7 format, which means much bigger bills for most people.
I guess in future smart appliances could communitate over Wifi to the meter
