Check that your Linky meter calculates your consumption correctly
Check that your Linky meter calculates your consumption correctlyJacob's Ladder - Feb 24, 2024
Electricity bill too high? Check that your Linky meter calculates your consumption correctly.
Are you paying more for electricity than you consume? Your Linky meter may be incorrectly connected. Here are two simple methods for identifying potential anomalies.
The energy crisis is pushing individuals to be more and more attentive to their electricity bill. Their major concern? Determine how to reduce their consumption to reduce the amount to pay. But be careful, the effort will be in vain if the meter is incorrectly connected and you are billed for your neighbor's consumption.
The origin of this problem essentially comes from the installation of the meter by Enedis technicians or their subcontractors. In six years, between 2015 and 2021, they installed 35 million new smart meters. A massive deployment which could have caused errors. Unlike its disk-based predecessors, the new Enedis meter requires, once the cables are connected, to be programmed with the Delivery Point (PDL) corresponding to the correct housing. It happened that the technicians reversed two programmings by injecting the customer's PDL into the neighbor's meter. If most of these installation errors could be detected and corrected quickly, it is possible to check that the electricity billed to you is indeed that consumed.
The first thing to do to ensure a good connection is to read your PDL (also called PRM, for Measurement Reference Point) on the Linky screen:
On your Linky meter, press the + button and scroll through the information until you see “PRM number”. This 14-digit number is unique and identifies a delivery point to the distribution network.
Then, on your invoice, look for this number, usually in the box on the left. It must be strictly identical to that of your meter.
In addition to the PDL/PRM, you can check the serial number of the meter. The latter, also 14 digits, is physically printed on the counter above the screen.
You must also be able to find it on your invoice. The consistency of this information guarantees that you will be billed on the consumption recorded by the device.
An additional method to check that Linky is supplying your home and only it, consists of cutting off the power supply and checking the absence of power recorded by the measuring device. To do this, scroll through the Linky information until you see “THEN APP SOUTIR” (for apparent power drawn). If you consume electricity at the same time, the value on the screen is non-zero and fluctuates depending on which devices are turned on. Then cut off the power supply to your home by lowering the lever of your subscriber circuit breaker. On the Linky screen, the power drawn must drop to zero. If this is not the case, your meter is incorrectly connected.

Puy-du-Dôme, guinea pig for the first electrical power limitation test
Puy-du-Dôme, guinea pig for the first electrical power limitation testFrance Evening - Jan 05, 2024
It had been on the boards for three months, in people's minds for a long time. On December 30, 2023, a decree allowing experimentation with electric power limitation was published in the Official Journal. For the moment, it is the department of Puy-du-Dôme which will be the only guinea pig.
Some individuals have seen it coming as big as a house for years. The Linky meters allow Enedis to have access to all consumption data, but also and above all to remotely control the electrical power supplied, it is (again) rural France which will pay the price for a country which hurt its production.
Between sobriety and energy efficiency, for more than a year the government has been trying as best it can to make the French responsible for meeting the country's energy needs. On paper, many measures have already been taken to force companies to consume less, but not all of them are respected.
So we need to find another idea to tighten the screw... Enedis!
As explained in article 1 of the decree, "residential customers connected to the public electricity distribution network, with a power less than or equal to 36 kVA and equipped with a metering device" may be subject to "a limitation measure temporary power". As Le Figaro reports, they will have "at least 3 kilovolt-amperes (kVA) left, enough to light a light bulb, an electric heater and recharge a smartphone", and "the duration of this limitation will not exceed two consecutive hours".
For the moment, only the department of Puy-du-Dôme is affected by this experiment. “Participants will be informed by Enedis at least three weeks before the experiment, by postal mail. They will be informed again of the day and the precise time slot 5 days before, by email, SMS or postal mail,” specifies the Ministry of Transition energy. And to add, consolingly: "They will receive a bonus of 10 euros for the 2 hours concerned. Those refusing to participate can report to Enedis to have been removed from the experiment."
Some see it as another step towards full power of the State.

The failure of the Linky meter: Enedis forced to return to the old model
The failure of the Linky meter: Enedis forced to return to the old modelGendarme profession - August 13, 2023
From the start, the Linky meter has been a problem for some households. It is therefore not surprising that justice took the lead on his case, justice forces Enedis to return to the old model.
The Linky meter case managed by Enedis resurfaces with an unprecedented judgment. Justice ordered the dismantling of the device, a decision which delights opponents of the Linky counter. Indeed, the latter is the source of great concern. For years, its installation has been strongly criticized, with some consumers pointing to significant increases in their electricity bills. Despite its efficiency in automatically transmitting consumption data, this device has not convinced all users. The major problem lies in the electromagnetic waves it emits. Indeed, they are potentially harmful to the health of many individuals. And those who suffer from electrohypersensitivity cannot even have the Linky meter at home.
Although the National Health Security Agency published a report in 2016 mitigating the risks, doubts persist. Some report symptoms such as headaches, nausea, dizziness and muscle aches. On July 10, a verdict fell: a woman suing Enedis won her case. Thus, the company has the obligation to replace it with a non-communicating model. This decision could encourage the authorities to further examine the risks associated with this device. A victory for the opponents, but what impact this will have on the future of the Linky counter, remains to be seen.

Enedis condemned: a resident of the Loire wins his caseThe Media in 4-4-2 - Jan 17, 2023
Enedis sentenced by the courts: a resident of the Loire wins his case to remove his Linky meter
According to an article by Le Point, a resident of Saint-André-le-Puy, in the Loire, won his case to remove his Linky meter from his home, after feeling headaches and tinnitus as soon as it was installed. Although the operator refused to remove the meter, the Saint-Étienne court ordered its replacement with a non-communicating meter within two months, subject to a penalty of 200 euros per day of delay.

Enedis finally admits that the Linky meter is not mandatory
Enedis finally admits that the Linky meter is not mandatoryPolitis - Jan 08, 2023
Households that refuse the Linky meter will not pay 5 euros per month… and will escape arbitrary power cuts.
On Thursday, December 15, Agence France presse (AFP) broadcast a dispatch titled "Electricity: the reading of paying meters from January 1 for certain customers not equipped with Linky" and whose content was taken up by many media and Web sites. However, even if what the AFP wrote is not formally false, the fact is that most people who have seen this information pass have been misinformed.
Indeed, people who have been resisting the invasion of fluorescent green smart meters since 2015 just have to self-read their consumption on the website of the electricity distributor Enedis, or by telephone, to escape at least until in 2025 to currently choppy billing to intimidate them.
It should be noted that this is indeed a simple invoice, among the many others appearing in the catalog of Enedis services, and in no case a fine: the 4 million households still equipped with ordinary meters are not outlaw.

The French who refuse the Linky will have to pay 5 euros per month from January
The French who refuse the Linky will have to pay 5 euros per month from JanuaryEquality and Reconciliation - 16 Dec 2022
The refractories with the famous yellow box will have to pay an invoice for meter reading from January 2023.
The decision was taken a few months ago: the French refractory to the installation of their Linky meter will have to pay an allocated sum from January 1, 2023.
[...]
According to the figures, nearly 10% of meters in France are not Linky, ie around 3,8 million old meters still in operation.
Among these 10%, a distinction must be made between those who deliberately refuse it and who will have to pay and those for whom it has not yet been possible to ask it.
For those who refused the meter, Enedis will invoice the readings operated by technicians, for an annual amount of 61 euros, which is equivalent to around 5 euros per month [...].
Self-survey possible until 2025
However, those who refuse the Linky meter will be able to refrain from paying this cost, only for two years.
All they have to do is read their meter themselves and communicate it to Enedis. As a result, no technician will travel and therefore no costs will be charged.
But this method will only work until the end of 2024. From January 2025, you will have to choose: the Linky meter or the invoice.

Ireland: Improper data capture by smart electricity meters
Ireland: Improper data capture by smart electricity metersEel under the Rock - Nov 15, 2022
Rights group reveals Irish government's 'smart' energy meter scheme collects more data than necessary
Privacy campaign group Digital Rights Ireland has called for an investigation into the collection of electricity consumption data by ESB Networks smart meters. The group says the semi-state company collects more data than it needs for billing purposes and customers are unaware of the data collection.
The installation of smart meters began in 2020 and has been installed in over 800 homes. The goal is to replace all meters with smart meters by 000.
Last month, ESB Networks reconfigured smart meters to collect detailed data every half hour. These data are stored in a centralized database. DRI claims that customers have not consented to this data collection. The group also questions the legal basis for the data collection and asks the Data Protection Commission (DPC), a privacy watchdog, to investigate.

Electrosensitive epidemicFrench Spirits - Nov 15, 2022
Pierre-Gilles Bellin, essayist, blogger is the guest of Ying Huang
“An electrosensitive epidemic, that is to say that people become intolerant to the waves. It's like a food intolerance. You can collectively use a microwave weapon on groups of soldiers, this is what China did to recover 150 km2 in the Himalayas; eventually it can be projected onto opponents and political dissidents as well.”

EHS Report: Tribute to Christophe MERGAULT
EHS Report: Tribute to Christophe MERGAULTEHS France organization - Oct 30, 2020
Exceptional report for an extraordinary activist. Listen for the last time to EHS Christophe.
Christophe MERGAULT father of two children, computer scientist, extraordinary EHS activist and diabetic, who consumes 4 times more insulin since the Linky were installed in his neighborhood opposed the limited company ENEDIS in order to restore a clean current not radiating in conducted mode for some EHS by shunting the hubs of Linky connected meters.
His legitimate salutary acts of public health against this new harmful irradiating pollution honor him, but following a denunciation, in a lawsuit of David against Goliath he is financially severely condemned.
The violence of this trial is due to the fact that it was judged in advance, indeed the verdict was ready the same day, even if the judge after a moment of hesitation decided to give it only a few days later.
This haste means that the documents provided to the judge are more than 2000 pages concerning scientific information on the harmfulness of the Linky Dirty Electricity injected by the concentrators, its serious consequences on health, as well as the living proofs given by numerous testimonies of people Electro Hyper Sensitive, were swept away with the back of their hand!
On simple request a report of Homage to Christophe Mergault will be sent to you via a freely accessible platform. You can send your request to , thank you.

Linky: the concentrator reaper ... is dead
Linky: the concentrator reaper ... is deadThe Age of Doing - Oct 19, 2022
Christophe M, electrohypersensitive, who deactivated dozens of Linky concentrators, denounced by a "good Frenchwoman" and sued by Enedis, ended his life on September 28, 2022.
This Linky opponent had found a weak point in the device: the concentrators, which make the meters "communicating". Tired of following the legal route that did not recognize electrohypersensitivity, he began to “mow down” a few hundred before getting caught.
Enedis wanted to make an example.
DEATH OF AN INVISIBLE
A few days ago, Christophe M. ended his life. Originally from Vienne, he lived, worked and was an activist in Brittany. Our paths crossed a number of years ago, thanks to militant activities. Rather than militant activity, "combat" would be a better word. For him, resigning himself was not an option in life. Neither resign nor submit.
Having become EHS – electrohypersensitive – he had to stop his professional activity. He then devoted most of his time and energy to raising awareness of this pathology – little known and denied, despite the now official figures from ANSES, i.e. 3,5 million people (in France) in 2018. He has worked, in various ways, to make known the harmfulness of the perpetual fogs of electromagnetic waves in which we all bathe, waves which impact our health to a greater or lesser extent, and which make “normal” life impossible for patients: heavy painful symptoms, difficult to treat and disabling, leading to school and professional exclusion, impossible social life, in all places since the waves are omnipresent…. and endless search for white areas – rather gray, to date – becoming increasingly rare with the arrival of 5 and 6G. These patients discovered the reality of total confinement, long before the “health crisis”. And for them, it doesn't stop with a government decree!
In the microcosm, Christophe was known as a fearless and cheerful anti-Linky activist. We, the Stop-Linky activists, are not numerous. It is very difficult to mobilize, the waves cannot be seen – therefore they do not exist or are harmless – and the majority of people have digested the techie message so well that they are convinced that the problems created by technology will be solved. by technology. Unaware – voluntarily or not – that it is an endless race since wanting and claiming to solve the problems it has generated, technology creates new ones…. In short, among the few active activists pissed off by the neon-green alien (and his brothers), Christophe was undoubtedly the most daring, intrepid and activist. His little tinkering to deactivate the invaders ended up being reported to the police by a "good Frenchwoman". Enedis, annoyed and wanting to set an example, had our comrade brought to justice and asked him for forty thousand euros in compensation, a request followed by the judge. Christophe had given up appealing, discouraged by his lawyer who predicted a second verdict even heavier than the first.
Even if, in various struggles, the "tiny ones" sometimes win good fights against the "mighty ones", David still rarely wins against Goliath. Without a job or source of income, therefore unable to pay the amount claimed, not recognized in his activities as a whistleblower, very isolated despite the few declarations from support committees, Christophe found himself taken by the throat... there was only a small step to the rope that happened around the neck this Wednesday, September 28.
If we consider the result of certain fights, we can speak of failure. However, it is quite possible to look at it differently. In this society where the injustices, more and more numerous, are of State, in this time plagued by individualism, to refuse to submit, to refuse to resign, to resist, to act in the direction of the common and the best, in whatever field it is, it is already a victory. Against indifference and fatalism. Against the galloping loss of our humanity – of our essence, therefore.
Christophe (Linkiller) was my comrade, my brother in arms – and in soul – my friend. Nobody has the right to judge him, and especially not those who have neither his courage nor his commitment. His funeral will take place in the small cemetery of St Pierre les Eglises in Chauvigny, this Wednesday, October 5 at 10 a.m.The 3 October 2022

The Linky affair, revealing French mistrust for the caste that lies to it
The Linky affair, revealing French mistrust for the caste that lies to itThe mail from the strategists - 08 oct 2022
The Linky affair, and the rumor of possible remote hot water cuts, is a kind of perfect case study to illustrate not the mistrust, but the mistrust that has developed between the caste in power and the rest. of the French people, who find it increasingly difficult to believe official lies.
The way the subsidized press cartel flew to the aid of Enedis demonstrated, if necessary, how much the regime relies on "trusted journalists" to convince beggars not to worry and to obey without flinching all the delusions that have taken power.
The reactions to an AFP dispatch published on Tuesday, announcing that Enedis would interrupt the power supply to hot water tanks between 12 p.m. and 14 p.m. for six months were a powerful indicator of the French malaise which should greatly worry the power. Never before have ordinary citizens expressed so much distrust of the incessant lies of the caste that directs and manipulates them.

As an electrician, I will explain to you what Enedis has planned to doPlanetes360 - 07 Oct 2022
Contrary to what some media have suggested, hot water will not be cut off by Linky meters this winter.
The controversy around Linky meters was revived by the discreet publication of a ministerial decree on September 22. According to some rather rapid analyses, the text would allow Enedis, the manager of the current distribution network, to "cut off your hot water remotely this winter" via the famous Linky meters.
Here, in pictures, what it is exactly.
