A tele switch meter has been disconnected  and need to reconnect it but not sure of the connections

 
Because they got a huge bill and they contacted supplier and they said the reason was because tele switch had been disconnected

 
only people who can legally re-connect metering is the Electric supplier. Probably better off with a new dual tariff meter anyway. How long ago was it disconnected?

They had off peak heaters and they ripped them out and I put in new 24 hour heaters and did away with off peak

 
Well until this meter thing is sorted out ? But we've fitted in a few houses and as yet had no complaints ,until now !!! But I have my doubts 

 
Really having a mare about this the clients are understanding but , think I should just tell them they are going to have to call the meter comp and take my chances 

 
So you rip out the off peak supply and the storage heaters that are designed to use cheap rate overnight electricity, store it in the heaters and release the heat during the day.

You install in their place "24 hour" heaters, which are presumably panel heaters that they can turn on or off at any time of day, using electrcity at the PEAK rate.

And both you and the customer us surprised the cost of heating the house has gone up? :C :shakehead

LOL...

I put some in a cottage a few years ago for a landlord... A couple of years later I get a call off the Tennant asking if I can test property as they've had a £3k electric bill on top of their £100pcm, when they left the property..
