We are like you - which electric company are you with? And what controls your switching - do you have a telemeter that switches off an external signal or a timeswitch? If you can give me those two bits of info, I can probably find out more for you ...
We're with Ebico, Madcat.
The lady who writes the emails is always polite and willing to help, but the 'technics' are not really helpful, or very knowledgeable as far as I can see.
Our meter is a more recent one, with a readout that shows a big total number, then '1', then '2'. The '1' is daytime , the '2' is night-time usage.
They've had photographs of the meter, descriptions etc, and more than emough to identify the situation, and still cannot answer the question, so the cynic in me assumes that like most energy companies, they're out there to rip you off in some way. I think this 'window' is one of the ways.
Perhaps an Ofgen letter is called for?
To answer your specific question though, we don't have a telemeter as far as I can gather, just a white box covered in cobwebs... The fuse boxes are clearly marked though, with two saying 'heaters'.
