Default What does a united utilities electricity meter read?

I have a United Utilities 52350-n electricity Watt meter that displays
000000 prefixed with 1 for 1 sec, then 00241 prefixed with 2 for the
next sec and then 00241 prefixed with what looks like a backward 3 but
with the top chopped off. What is it displaying?

Yesterday it read 00240 so I guess it's reading KWH even though it
says it's a Watt meter, but I don't know what it's doing for the other
3 readings.

Presumably 1 would be for economy7 night units, 2 is standard units (or
daytime units if e7 were used) and the "E" is intended to be a sigma for
the sum of 1 and 2?

Or could it be a 't'; for 'total', perhaps.
