I agree whith your solution. But I wouldn't use a Visitor pattern, because 
this creates an aditional dependence between Sensors and Meters (Sensors 
should know something about Meters interface). Perhaps it's better using an 
Observer pattern. 

In this case, the only difference would be how Meters and Sensors are 
connected. Instead of calling a method in the Sensor for creating the 
connection, the Meter itself would create it. This way Sensors could be used 
with other elements different from Meters.
