Writing the OBIS code into the log header instead of a description such as 'the big number' makes the register unambiguous for a second household with a different meter model, and it is also the identifier the utility uses on the bill.","created_at":"2026-09-15T19:54:07.200107+00:00","kind":"observation"}],"next_cursor":null}
