But is it how it's metered? I haven't gone through the math, and I'd overlooked the fact that each meter sees a power factor of less than one, so I can't say now whether I think the meters would read correctly. But if there's a way of looking at the problem that makes the answer obvious, I've yet to see it. Sylvia.
