DNO's radio operated E7 switch has a volt free contact output, does this:

1. close for the duration of "Low" rate

2. close for the duration of "Normal" rate

3. pulse closed at change from Low to Normal and vice versa

Thanks in advance.

 
Closes for the duration of the low rate.

It's normally used to signal to the dual rate meter to charge at the low rate. Why is it not connected in your case? or are there two of them?

Thanks for that, customer asked me to remove electrotech(?) system as obsolete and unreliable, all storage heaters have individual contactors, planned to energise contactors using volt-free contact which is already wired into board. Just never been there between midnight and 7am to check what it actually does.
