[QUOTE="Kevin-5, post: 524384, member: 29581"] From your description you have a single phase water heater with 4 individual elements. This should have been more suitable on a three phase supply type of water heater. But three phase supply is not so common on domestic installations. The nature of your power supply should have determined what type of water heater you should be getting rather than buying the heater then making do with it. As for your alternating from 2x to 4x heaters your best option is your electrician needs to use contactors not DPs. And maybe use a timer for when your needs are during the day for 2 and when for 4 immersions to be active. [/QUOTE]
