Describe how the use of smart meters reduces labor costs.

What will be an ideal response?


Because they transmit their data by radio, smart meters do not have to be visited periodically by a meter reader.
This reduces the company’s labor costs and also eliminates errors in billing caused by inaccurately read meters.
Electricity can also be turned on or off at precise times by a smart meter without the need for any service personnel
to be present.
