That is the same text mentioned before, which refers to 3-phase. The vast majority of domestic supplies in the UK are single phase.
Smart meters, you know they make sense...

The article I first saw was in the telegraph, but the register gave a bit more information, so I gave that link.
A three phase smart meter is likely to simply include three sensors where a single phase one includes only one. It is also likely that they are the same devices and have the same problems.
It says three phase meters. So, not applicable to most domestic houses.
You may also want to read the comments on that article. There are (at least) three from people who have read the original research publication.
Basically, the problem is not with single phase meters, which tested ok in the research.

Difference between what you're supplied and what readings the meter gives. If they were exactly out of phase you'd get say 0V at 13amps and 240V at 0 amps So no power used.
