Look in the "meter details file" -- <project name>.mtd   It shows what 
report variables are on which meters.

e.g.:  an excerpt
  For Meter=Electricity:Facility [J], contents are:
   SOUTHZONE_1STFLOOR:Lights-Electric Consumption
   NORTHZONE_1STFLOOR:Lights-Electric Consumption
   SOUTHZONE_2NDFLOOR:Lights-Electric Consumption
   NORTHZONE_2NDFLOOR:Lights-Electric Consumption
   SOUTHZONE_1STFLOOR:Cat00 Electric Eq-Consumption
   NORTHZONE_1STFLOOR:Cat00 Electric Eq-Consumption
   SOUTHZONE_2NDFLOOR:Cat00 Electric Eq-Consumption
   NORTHZONE_2NDFLOOR:Cat00 Electric Eq-Consumption
