1. A Standard (24Hr) meter has a single tariff rate for electricity usage at all times. Meter Type MCC01.
2. A Nightsaver (Day/Night) meter has two different rates for day and night usage. Customers on a Nightsaver tariff are charged a lower rate for electricity used at night. Meter type MCC02.
3. A Smart meter allows for flexible pricing and rates based on time of use. Users may be able to save by shifting usage to times when electricity is cheaper. Meter types MCC12 and MCC16.
We need to know your meter type to make sure we compare deals based on your actual meter and tariff type. Your meter details will be displayed on the front of your bill.

Please select how much of your electricity is used at night-time. Night rate charges apply between 11pm and 8am (winter time) or between 12am and 9am (summer time). If you don’t know or are unsure, choose the national average split which is set by the Commission for Regulation of Utilities (CRU).

If you have a smart meter, you may be on a smart tariff. Smart tariffs, or time of use tariffs charge different rates during different times of the day, and often offer lower rates during off peak electricity times or at night time.

If you are unsure check your bill as it will be listed – it may be labelled as your ‘plan’ or ‘tariff’
