However, it will cost considerably more to run - since it is using
electricity at peak price rather than off-peak price.
Unless I am *extremely* mistaken, all my leccy switches over to cheap rate
at 12.30am and back onto peak rate at 7.30am.
I have one meter outside that shows "normal" and "low" readings, and this
is controlled by a teleswitch.
Sorry to follow up my own post, but my immersion also runs off the mains (on
a timer) so I certainly hope that goes on my cheap rate! I'm sure it does,
as our leccy consumption split over the last 2 years has been 62% off peak /
38% peak.
