Smart Meters and RF Problems
Smart Meter: If a person wants to move a smart meter from an outside wall that is right behind the bed where they sleep (no other place to put bed either) can they do this, or does it have to stay where the fuse box is (would like to move to completely other side of house to cut down RF exposure).
This electrical question came from: Donna , from Austin, Texas.
