Electric meter
Is a device that measures
the energy transformed
from electrical sources to
our devices at home.
There are two types of
electric meter: Digital Type
and Dial or Analog Type.

How do
we read
them?
STEPS:
73256
kWh
Always read from the
rightmost dial.
Read the number by the pointer of
the dial. If the pointer appears to be
exactly on a number, record the
number
When the pointer is between two
numbers, the lower number is
recorded.
Then, interpret the
reading.

Group into 3
Each group will be given 2 sets of
illustrations of electric meters:
1. With pointers pointing to
specific numbers in each dial
and interpret the reading
2. With empty dials for you
to draw the pointers
indicated by the readings
Discuss within your group, record
and interpret the readings.
Choose a reporter to explain the
group’s work.

Direction: Read the situation
carefully.
During summer, households’ electricity rates are usually
high. One Saturday morning, Eboy was asked by his Lolo to
check on the readings of their electric meter to monitor their
electric consumption. Let us help Eboy complete the
readings by supplying the blanks with appropriate
answers.
