paying off:

the consumer’s accumulated debt,

any meter balance less than the disablement threshold,
•
any emergency credit used,
•
and the remainder added to the meter balance.
On Saturday and Sunday, after the £5 cap is reached, no percentage of the
payment is taken. The full £10 goes towards paying off:
•
the consumer’s accumulated debt,
•
any meter balance less than the disablement threshold,
•
any emergency credit used,
•
and the remainder added to the meter balance.
Changing Payment Modes
SGM1430-B meters with firmware 7.6.0 and later will be supplied with a default
of Credit mode. Also, consumption charges (tariff prices) or standing charges will
not be set up - they will contain zero charge values. The headend system must set
up these charges as part of the initial installation and commissioning process.
Changing modes requires a sequence of commands that are governed by a request
of the supplier.
