The lamps consume much power so therefore magnets on the meter. This was a waist of a couple minutes. I cannot understand why the glass of water and the wires. I can image the magnets if strong enough and the insides of that meter the gears and all are metalic it could posibly so down the dial spinning. Don't know if it would work. But what's up with that cup a water on top and wires hooked into a cup? That's not going do do anything that's just silly.
I need a way to do this from inside my home. Anyone knows about Current Reversal Transformers? There are some on Amazon but not sure whch would do the job. Any help on this? Motorizarse gmail. Get the whole family involved and save even more. But you have to really crap on it.
Granted, this meter still needs to be physically read by someone driving several miles out of town. I had the same thought. Hall effect sensors seem to be too slow to accurately measure the spikes, and Rogowski sensors vastly over-react to spikes.
Connect that to as much computerised Inter-gubbins as you like. If the modern meters use Hall-effect sensors, does that mean the old trick of sticking a magnet on the side will still work?
Interesting read. If you load their lines with a poor power factor, that should cost you money. Unless your service agreement says you are responsible for power factor, you should not be charged for that. It is not fair to charge for service in a way that was not agreed to in your service contract. A good way to do that is to make consumers pay for the power factor — include it in the meter and suddenly all manufacturers have to add proper PFC instead of just claiming they do PFC and then not.
RW ver 0. The irony is our local power company had a program to trade in you old incandescent bulbs for LEDs. Got a bag of 15 of them. Just a link paste dump, potential to tell us more about how LED household bulb drivers work and give us insight, have not yet watched….
Might help answer some of the questions. Sort of a SamKnows for electricity. Funny you should mention that. I have been pondering what it would cost to have an electrician place one of them right after the utilities meter.
Certified meters are also inexpensive, less than twenty quid in the UK refurbished. In the US it would likely be a lot more work than that, as most of us have our power meters mounted outdoors. Installation would require having a licensed electrician plumb in a new meter base, calling the power company out to temporarily shut down your power good luck with that once they ask you why , wire in said base, have it inspected by local authorities, call the power company out to turn your power back on if they still agree to sell you power , and then pay most of the people involved — Or some scenario similar to this.
My smart meter is consistent with the old analog meter. I was tracking my power usage for a couple of years before the smart meter was installed, and kept watching for another year. I certainly had a jump in my bill when they switched me over….
Thanks for the quick clarification! Gotta look up what mine is now, I think I hoping for shunt… With my solar panels, hall might under read my input too… Now to actually rtfa ,. Cursory research shows that my meter is a Rogowski… Double coiled to account for alien interference, but still.
May be a sourced, cited open letter to the power co. Too busy a day today full research will be forthcoming! Might also look into adding mechanical meters! News reporters came around and recorded the meter reading false right in front of their eyes! Have you read?
DSO — cybersecurity baseline requirements Brazil continues to be a hotspot for cybercrime — Accenture. With code execution on a user workstation, an unattributable communication path could be established to an external Mandiant command and control centre.
Publicly available hacking tools were then used to escalate privileges and obtain domain administrator-level access. This in turn permitted command and control to be established over selected user workstations, enabling the capture of keystrokes, login to file shares and extraction of network documents and configurations.
But the properties of salt and sugar have nothing to do about tampering electric meter. Salt and sugar are placed or slip through the slit of the electric meter to distract the spinning dial. Worst, ants will swamp inside the meter for the thirst of sugar.
This will lead to the next method— using a jumper. This tampering method is easily detected by authorities. Someone told me of a bulb which has almost no effect on the electric meter. Somewhere inside that bulb maybe a current reversing transformer. This will slows down or stop the meter. There are ways to reduce your electricity bill by not risking yourself to jail and damage your reputation. VECO has these tips and also this appeal to us consumers.
