[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 354564, member: 6969"] The norm is a dual rate meter with a built in time switch. Gone are the days of separate meter and time clock. So you want to run TWO submains from the meter point to the two cu't in the flat. Each will need over current protection and isolation so two switch fuses would do the job. Make sure the cable run / type does not need RCD protection. The whole house gets metered at the cheap rate at night, but only the off peak CU is actually energised. [/QUOTE]
