How to remove wrong electricity meter reading

[markauk (Mark)]

I’ve recently got the energy monitoring working with my smart meter via the Samsung SmartThings integration. Mostly it has been working great.

However, yesterday, for some reason the integration read my meter as 0 at one single point, and then was back to normal within a couple of minutes. However, the integration interpreted that as consuming that amount of electricity, which means my consumption for that day (and any timeframe including that day) is off-the-charts high.

Is there any way I can remove the rogue reading?

Hey I have managed (I think) to solve the issue which was bothering me for a long time and I have decided to share the solution with you guys. I hope that someone finds it helpful. Problem I have OWL energy sensor which sends the data via RF433. The problem is that sometimes the received values are not correct.
