Given that..
a) Gas suppliers are fitting smart meters and have to convert us all by 2010.
b) My meter is in a carport below a bedroom that I am currently walling up to in order to make this space part of the domestic residence (the meter will then be indoors).
Is it correct that the preferred position of any new smart meters will be outdoors where access will not rely upon a resident being at home?
I won't want a meter in my newly created room (who would?) and also don't want to pay the absurd sum that I will be charged to move it. Surely whoever is obliged to fit a smart meter will prefer to fit it outside and as the existing meter will then be indoors the supplier will have to move the supply. I won't ask them to move it but if they insist......
Why pay to move it when I can wait knowing that the government will oblige the supplier to do it free?
Sounds too easy, anybody got any holes to shoot through this theory
