Yes. I am still trying to find out what the times should be to ensure I put on dishwasher and washing machine on at the correct time overnight.

Electricity supplier came this morning (turned up 75 minutes late). They said everything is wired correctly and they said (as JohnD did above) that I am probably getting more cheap electricity than I should be.

Thanks to everyone for your help

Not at home. I've found a picture of a similar on the internet (apologies to the copyright holder for posting it here without permission). Min are in better condition than the one in the picture. There are two dials. One input and one output. At the moment I have the input on level 3 so...

The indicator neon come son 22.30 to 08.00 so these are not the off-peal times as told by my supplier. I checked my meter readings last night. At 22.30 they were Rate 1: 56, Rate 2: 9, Rate 3: 420. This morning they are Rate 1: 57, Rate 2: 10 and Rate 3: 447.

Yes bills are high this is why I started complaining again this year. They said I was on correct tariff as I use all my elec at night. I said that's because immersion heater is on all night. Just been on Rtis website and it says I am getting a weak long wave signal here due to problems with...

Electricity company are coming again next week. Problem is they have already changed the meter ( a couple of weeks ago) so they say that can't be the problem.

Yes if I turn off the storage heater box and turn on the boost timer the light on the e7bx comes on . There's a cable left hand top of e7bx which goes behind the board and I think then going up to the main fuse box. Earlier I said this wire was going to the immersion but now i think it's going...

Tail 5 does go to mem cu

See above night time, afternoon for 2 hours and day time rates

Lol

Out of e7bx one ca.ble to the box which controls night storage heaters other I thin to immersion. I know the night storage heaters are on but I can't tell what times they are storing the heat. I've stil got them on as I live near benson which is coldest place in England still frosty most mornings

Pictures of wiring, immersion and the meter which has 3 rates

So there is a timer inside the e7bx which somehow Set itself to come on at 2230 and go off at 0800 despite the fact it has never been touched since installed when I moved in 12 years ago and worked correctly for several years

Not sure if I can get any more in the picture due to door on the pantry cupboard but I'll try later. I can't tell whether the night storage heaters are on - they're very old. I haven't recently moved in - I 've been in the property about 12 years. This problem first occurred 6 years ago and...

Back to my original question: can the off peak time only come from the electricity meter? I am using a huge amount of electricity overnight. Presumably because the immersion heater is on all night. Only alternative is to turn it off and then have no hot water in the morning.

This is what my electricity company has said. I can't tell when the meter switches to off peak. Night energy (any general appliances)- 00:00 hours to 07:00 hours Heating and hot water control- this is on a teleswitch controlled by us for heating and water up to 7 hours per day. This comprises...

The problem is that my immersion heater is on all night when it is only meant to be on during the off peak hours.

Yes. This is a photo I sent to electricity company to show that light was on and boost was off at 22.30 in the evening when it should have been off.

Will have to go home and take another photo. The E7BX red light is on between 22.30 and 08.00. If the "timed" button is down (i.e. not off) between those times I can hear that the immersion heater is on and it is heating the water. Between 08.00 and 22.30 I have to turn the boost dial to heat...
