Re: What codes are used on an Atlas MK7A meter in South Australia

Sent from Mail<> for WindowsHi Lester,I wholeheartedly agree.With all our technology, you would think that it would be fairly simple( for so called smart meters) to record local time, instead of interstate time.I did contact AGL about this, but they told me that the energy regulator has mandated that all meters have to be set to eastern state time, and then it is up to either SAPN or each energy company, to adjust their timing. This was back in August 2023, so I can’t remember exact details.Hope ...

Re: What codes are used on an Atlas MK7A meter in South Australia

Thanks Neil for that really comprehensive information.I will check out Myaccount to see what usage info is available.I mainly wanted to see if the time on the meter could be adjusted to SA time so that I don't have to think too much about whether I am using peak or shoulder load.I assume the smart meter will automatically allow for usage based on the time of use.I just need to be mindful of the time difference.

Re: What codes are used on an Atlas MK7A meter in South Australia

I have just had an Atlas mk7A smart meter installed at my home in Adelaide.However, the time shown is incorrect. It is half an hour fast, which suggests to me that it is set for the eastern states, not SA. Is there a way to correct the time, so that there is no confusion with peak,shoulder,offpeak loads?
