The Arizona Department of Health Services released a report this week to utility regulators that determined the wireless “smart meters” utilities use to track electricity sales to customers “are not likely to harm the health of the public.”
The Arizona Corporation Commission asked the ADHS to investigate the meters because thousands of utility customers in the state would prefer not to have the meters on their homes. Residents complain of headaches, sleeplessness and a variety of other health concerns from the meters, which use wireless signals to transmit data from one to another and back to the utility.
