Issue with Megaflow DD170 Electric boiler with 2 switches and eco7

DavidPurfleet

Hey Guys,

Rubidium - My new supplier is Scottish power I took on the cheapest tariff i could find on the market for E7 ( Online Fixed Saver December 2017 v2 ) . So that's not the issue.

I will have a look for the immersion timer heaters online , would i need an electrician to install it or i could google the way to do it my self?

Here are some photos of the switches and Water Tank

While there's no legal requirement to be formally qualified to do your own electrical work (only if you're charging someone else), unless you're certain you know what you're doing I wouldn't recommend it for your own property.

Since you're renting though, you don't own it. Get the Landlady's written permission to get an electrician to fit it.

I would be asking the LL to install a timer or possibly moving to a non E7 tariff.

I doubt the landlord is legally required to provide correctly configured E7 DHW wiring.
