utility meter
Usage tracking device
A utility meter is a device that measures consumption of electricity, gas, or water at a building or residence.
Utility companies read these meters—now often remotely—to calculate bills.
The utility meter showed we'd used twice as much electricity this month.
Smart meters transmit usage data automatically and can track consumption in real time.
