Hello all,

Got a call to pop round to a flat with economy 7 heating, apparntly nothing is working. Not worked on any of this before. Any pointers to have a look at first?

 
might have been worth asking if they had just moved in.........

common problem with the switch off on the off peak board

 
Also check if they have moved suppliers. Had a case recently where they got the on peak electricity changed over, but new supplier simply forgot about off peak. Although storage heater / immersions do malfunction, if ALL of them are off I'd investigate incoming supply / switched off MCB's etc.

 
Thanks for the advice guys, went round there and its a landlord who met me, went in and there tennant who wasn't there had let the ket meter run out and taken key with them so got to go back next week now - still easy money I suppose!
