If you’re keen to keep your electricity bill down then you really need to understand exactly how much you’re using and when, and it’s a task that’s made very easy for most households that have a smart meter.
Depending on the type of smart meter that has been installed at your home over the past few years you may be able to attach a monitoring device that can then report back your usage in real time, allowing you to identify when you’re using the most electricity and which appliances are the most power hungry.
These smart meter monitoring devices are priced from around 70 dollars and many can be easily installed without an electrician. You’ll find more information and options at http://www.mysmartmeter.com.au.
