Staywatt

What is a group in the meter cabinet?

A group is an individual circuit in the distribution board that supplies power to part of the property, each protected by its own circuit breaker. A standard group is usually 16 amperes, which at 230 volts amounts to a maximum of approximately 3680 watts; if you draw more power through one group, the circuit breaker trips. Staywatt's metering module charges per group in kilowatt-hours, not per appliance, and one group with refrigerator and wifi always remains outside the measurement and stays on. Work on the group distribution itself is a job for an installer.

This is general information, not advice about your situation. We do not see your meter cabinet and are not familiar with your contract with your energy supplier, your rental agreement and your park or homeowners association regulations. Your installer, your rental broker or your adviser will confirm what is permitted and required in your case.
