- agreed, and very importantly it means less than zero to the supplier
- for the reasons given in #23 suppliers will not even to attempt to clarify to an inquiring customer which register is which
- add to that the the myriad of different meters, and different setups of the same meter they are reluctant to guess
- for a guess is what it would be - AMPY / 2 registers - AMPY / 4 registers for example
- some use 1-4 others 1-2, how would a wage-slave desk-jockey or even a technician know ?

Hi,

shandy1, I've edited post 15 to try and make it clearer.

Though, if you've taken a reading this morning you should know now if rates are the correct way round.

The R2 has changed now so that must be the night rate.

should be on night at approx 12.30 am, what sort of timer switch is it, old style analogue type, or a radio teleswitch. the analogue ones can be miles out. the pointer at the bottom should be pointing to roughly the correct time
