They do not use the power lines - they transmit strong radio frequencies for 20 ft to 2 miles - all around the meter. The smart meters pass the data to other smart meters which pass the data to a special smart meter on each block which in turn transmits the data to the hydro company. As least that is my understanding from the studies I have been reading....
