Search Meters

Search for all electricity meters in the vicinity of a given postcode/ address.

This endpoint allows searching for meters by postcode and optionally by building identifier. For data protection and contractual reasons, meter details are returned in an encrypted format that can be used in subsequent API calls to retrieve the full meter information.

The search works in three steps:

1. Search for meters at the specified address using this endpoint
2. Ask the end-user to select the correct address from the list
3. Call the /meter/by-ref/{meter_ref} endpoint with the corresponding reference to get the full meter details

NB: This should not be used with procedural address matching; it is intended for end-user interaction only. For precise address matching, use the /meter/by-address endpoint instead, which will perform matching for you.
