Electric Storage Heating

Tazz T

Anybody know how to reset the timer for Goldshield electric heating. There's nothing over at the ESB site about it and I can't for the life of me get through to them on the phone today.

Our storage heating is charging during the day instead of during the nightsaver hours. We live in an apartment block and there's a meter in the communal electric cupboard that I assume is the nightsaver meter (as it's about 8 hours out) but it's wired shut (don't know if that means if I'm allowed to touch it or not).

If anyone has had similar problems and knows how to resolve this, let me know.

you need to ring the esb to sort that out.

Yes, the timeclock is sealed by the ESB and you should not break the seals.

with standard nightsaver everything in your apartment including sockets ,lights etc. is normally cheap rate at nite so you may inadvertantly be benefitting from cheap rate electric during the daytime although your storage heating is 'out of sync'.it's their loss anyway happens often enough
