Meter
What is a smart meter? And is it safe?
A smart meter is a new type of electronic meter that records electricity consumption and communicates the information to the utility for monitoring and billing.
A smart meter that is affixed with the SIRIM-ST and MCMC label is safe to be used as it has been tested and verified in accordance with the requirements of the guidelines issued by ST.
The Radio Frequency (RF) emission from a smart meter is also very minimal - the World Health Organisation (WHO) concluded that current evidence does not confirm the existence of any health consequences from exposure to low-level electromagnetic fields.
