Do you mean your electricity meter? Don't use as much electricity, then it will slow down.

Its far simpler to shove a couple of leads into the nearest street lamp outside and run the thing to the inside.
Both are illegal though.

I'm a sparky and a mate of mine drilled a hole in the side of his old meter, the one with the wheel, and then he shoved a hair grip in the hole to stop the wheel going round, he did this for 2 months then the third month he would let the meter work as normal so the Elecy board wouldn't suss him out....

This was all well 'n' good til the board changed his meter to a digital one then he was screwed....

Good Idea Knobbys nutz but then the phase conductor isn't fused correctly in the consumer unit and if something goes wrong the fuse wont blow and then we are talking a serious fire....
