It could simply be an issue to do with the type of meter, or more probably, whoever failed to program it correctly.
While I am on on Smartpower myself, because I have PV/grid inverter system, my meter is a bi-directional electronic smart meter, and it displays ALL possible tariffs in its display cycle. By that I mean;
1-----Display Test (all segments on)
2-----Time
3-----Date
4-----Total kWh imported
5-----kWh imported - Peak
6-----kWh imported - Off-peak
7-----kWh imported - Weekday shoulder
8-----kWh impotrted - Weekend shoulder
9-----Total kWh exported
10----kWh imported - Peak
11----kWh imported - Off-peak
12----kWh imported - Weekday shoulder
13----kWh imported - Weekend shoulder
I am only interested in 4 and 9 but the others are displayed even though I am not on a Smartpower tariff. I have never seen the time display incorrect and I read the meter every morning when I am picking up my paper from the front lawn.
The meter is a Landis & Gyr EM3300
