Not sure what that graph is for. My point is some customers could be affected, others not.
Just to show that the daylight saving time adjustment was added to meter graph between 2 & 3am. Note the double width 2am segment.
EK told me they'd resolved this, but looking at the dashboard they haven't. It was only a problem on 1st April, since then it's been fine, so I suggested they just move my free hour back one hour that day only rather than work out the core problem.
jonathan18: So, @timmmay, your dashboard is different to mine, in that not only the graphing of usage is incorrect, but the actual kWh figure given for the free hour is incorrect as well?
It's just time shifted back an hour. So power I used 9-10pm is showing as used 10-11pm.

Mine's not the same, it was about 2% instead of my usual 15 - 20%. EK have come back and said their data is accurate, which I don't think is true, but for one day I don't really care. They've changed my free hour for that day though, so sorted.
Are you guys still find EK good? Im looking at joining up for the 1 hour power
I'm loving it. Usually getting 30-50% of my power for free. I run dishwasher, washing machine to align their heating cycle with the hour. Hot water cylinder also on a timer to align.
I work from home sometimes, so on a cold morning i crank all the heaters in the house for a free hour between 9am-10am, fire keeps the house warm after that.
PM me if you want a discount code to use.
argh bad news. Was trying to get pricing but wouldnt come up so I Went on chat.
"Unfortunately this is due to the owner of your meter we dont have an agreement for this type of meter"
"You would need to have the meter upgraded to one of the following SMCO, ARC, AMS or Metrix"
Delphinus:. Hot water cylinder also on a timer to align.
I got the electrician to wire it into one of these when I built the house: https://www.theben.de/en/tr-609-top2-s-6090101
Originally it was for the purposes of just running an overnight boost if the fire wasn't running or didn't heat enough. HWC would turn on 2am (once fire had died down) and turn off at 5am. That would give me enough hot water for the day.
Now I run it just during my hour of power. HWC (1 hr) + Wetback gives me plenty of hot water, but if I don't have the fire going it's not quite enough (2 of us living here). I'm curious to see what it's like in summer when my solar hot water system gets a bit more heat in it. Over winter the solar just brings my water up to lukewarm. Summer you can have long long showers straight from the solar tank.

Is that for the bottom cylinder element?
