[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 531880, member: 6969"] You need to so some DIY tests. Along the lines of turn EVERYTHING off and first confirm the meter is not counting up. Then with everything off, turn on just one known high power load, like a plug in electric panel heater. You should see the meter counting up. Check the different readouts, you should have a different register for normal and off peak rates. Do this at different times of day, and see which register counts up. My guess is you will find you are still on E10 and whenever the off peak CU is energised, everything will be billed at the cheap rate. But until you do some tests like this and document your findings, you are only speculating that when the off peak CU is on, that it is being billed at the peak rate not off peak. [/QUOTE]
