2 electrcity meters, switching process?

M1llh0use

hi,

trying to switch suppliers but have been knocked back by both that i've applied to because we have 2 meters (Peak and Off peak)

Can anyone tell me how i'm supposed to be able to switch if they will only accept 1 meter?

thanks in advance!

What tariff are you on ?

There may well be two meters on E7

Standard & Off peak Energy - paperless

You raised this problem of an Exotic meter in November 2014.

Did you ask SSE if your meters could be changed to a Standard E7 set up?

2 meters. How are you billed at present-do you have 2 MPAN's or 1?.
My understanding is that all you need for E7 is one MPAN-the extra physical meter should not matter.
If not, ask your incoming supplier to switch you to a single E7 meter-however any rewiring required downstream will be down to you.

2 MPANs at the moment.

looks like i'll actually need to speak to someone at SSE

Some companies will give you a deal based on cheaper night-time electricity, but if they only offer one tariff they should just aggregate both readings, you don't need a new meter.

They won't do that if there are two MPAN's. You either have to stick to an E10 tariff \(with a very limited supplier base) or change the metering.
And not all suppliers will merge the readings from an E7 meter for single rate, some require a dedicated E7 meter.
