submeters
Tenant utility trackers
Submeters are secondary meters that measure utility consumption for individual units within a larger property—apartments in a building, storefronts in a mall, or departments within a facility.
The main meter tracks total usage; submeters break it down so costs can be allocated to specific tenants or areas: The landlord installed submeters so each unit pays for its own electricity.
