How do I read my electricity meter?

Reading an electricity meter can be a straightforward process, and it is essential to understand how to do it accurately. Most electricity meters in use today are digital or analog. For a digital meter, you will see a digital display that indicates your current electricity usage in kilowatt-hours. Simply note the number displayed, and that is your reading. For analog meters, which typically have dials, you will need to read each dial from left to right. The dials may spin in alternating directions, with some moving clockwise and others counterclockwise. Take care to note the number that the hand has just passed or is pointing to. If the hand is exactly on a number, you should check the next dial to the right to determine if the hand is about to move past that number. If you want to keep track of your usage over time, record the readings regularly. Additionally, for more detailed information regarding your meter type and specific instructions, it may be helpful to visit the Nevada Power Company (South) website, where further resources may be available.
