Meet

your new

smart

meter

Your smart meter comes

with an In-Home Display.

Here’s a quick guide to

what’s on the screen and

what the buttons do.

Your In-Home Display

shows information from

your smartmeters

An In-Home Display (IHD) is

an electronic device that talks

wirelessly to your smart meters.

It updates every 30 minutes

and shows your energy usage,

measured in kilowatt-hours

(kWh), and the cost, shown

in pounds and pence. This

information can give you a

better idea of how much energy

dierent appliances use.

Once you know that, you can

save money by making more

informed choices about when

and how you use them.

Your In-Home Display needs

to maintain a connection

withyour smart meter

To make the most of your

display, it’s useful to keep it

plugged in somewhere you

caneasily see it.

Wherever you choose, check

the signal strength by looking at

the symbol on the top left of

the screen (marked 1when you

turn the nextpage in this book).

The more stripes, the stronger

the signal. If the signal is weak,

move the In-Home Display closer

to your electricity smartmeter.

Understanding

the basics

Good news! There’s a built-in tutorial

The tutorial uses sample data to show what happens when you press

each button. You can’t accidentally switch o your energy or change

the tari, so you should feel comfortable having a poke around.

To start the tutorial, press OK and then press the big Forward Arrow

on the right 5 times until you see the words ‘Tutorial [OK]’. Found it?

Press OK again to get started.

There’s an internal battery

which lasts for about an

hour and a half

Normally, you should keep

the In-Home Display plugged

in, but the internal battery

means you can carry the it

around the house to investigate

the eects of turning on

dierentappliances.

If the screen goes blank when

it’s unplugged, wake it up

by pressing the round, lat

buttonon the back.

If it doesn’t wake up, plug it back

in to recharge it. You won’t lose

any data if it loses charge, it’ll

all leap back into life when you

plugit in again.

You don’t need to

take meter readings

any more

As part of your installation, our

engineer has taken your last

meter readings and should put

those into your Bulb Account.

From now on, as well as sending

information to your In-Home

Display, your smart meters will

send information to your Bulb

Account automatically.

This means your statements

will be based on your actual

usage instead of estimates,

and there’s no need to send us

meterreadings. Hooray!

What the

buttons do

Home takes you to the

home screen which

shows the current day’s

energy usage. You can

electricity is being used

fuel total.

The coloured lights at the bottom of the screen indicate when

your usage is low (green), medium (orange) or high (red).

Tostart o with, they’ll measure your usage against a typical,

medium-sized home. Over time, the In-Home Display will

learn more about the typical usage for your home, so these

lights will show a more accurate relection of your own usage.

You get to the information on your In-Home Display using the buttons

at the bottom of your screen.

Calendar changes the

time period displayed.

Read more about this

onthe next page.

(Menu) OK has two

functions, so we usually

call it ‘Menu/OK’. Press

it once to bring up

the menu, then use

the Arrows to see the

dierent items on the

menu. Press the Menu/OK

button again to select a

menu item.

Arrows are used to scroll

through dierent options

in the menu, Calendar

and settings.

See how much energy

you’ve used by day, week

ormonth

If you’re making changes to

your habits or your home (for

example, installing energy-

saving light bulbs), being able

to see your energy usage over

dierent time periods is useful.

Here’s how you do that:

Press Home to see how much

energy you’ve used today.

Press Calendar to change the

view to energy usage this

week. Continue pressing to

see the energy usage for this

month and this year.

Press the Back Arrow

to scrollback in time for

a chosenperiod.

Press the Fuel button to see

the energy usage for

individual fuels.

See how much energy

dierent appliances

areusing

To see how much electricity a

single appliance uses, unplug

your In-Home Display and walk

over to the appliance you’re

curious about.

Press Now, and make a note

of the energy usage in kWh,

pounds and pence. Don’t forget

some appliances are on all the

time, like your fridge/freezer,

so straight away you’ll see

the residual cost per hour for

keeping your home running.

Next, switch your appliance

on, and press Now again. See

the cost and kWh change. By

seeing which appliances are

the most expensive to run, it’s

easier to understand where you

could make changes and save

inthefuture.

How to understand

your energy use

Working out how much energy an appliance uses

You can set a daily, weekly or monthly

budget to make it easier to see how

much you’re spending.

This is for guidance only, you

budget, but it can be a useful

prompt to take action.

The budgets for gas and

electricity are set individually.

Once they’re set, the

In-Home Display will

show a combined

budget on the

homescreen.
