Teleswitch meter

Teleswitch meters will be turned off nationwide on 30th June. NRG Electrical in Bedford can help you upgrade to modern electric heating systems with 24/7 control. Act now to stay warm and efficient.

A quick but important reminder: Teleswitch meters are being switched off across the UK on 30th June 2025. If your home or property in Bedford still relies on one, now is the time to take action. At NRG Electrical Installation Services, we’re helping customers across Bedfordshire get ahead of this change with modern electric heating upgrades that are smarter, more efficient, and easier to control.

What Is a Teleswitch Meter and Why Is It Being Turned Off?

Teleswitch meters were commonly installed to manage off-peak electricity use – particularly in homes with night storage heaters, under Economy 7 or Economy 10 tariffs. These meters rely on a national radio signal to switch between peak and off-peak rates automatically. That radio signal is being permanently shut down on 30th June, meaning:

  • Your meter could stop switching correctly.
  • You might lose access to off-peak tariffs.
  • Your storage heaters may not function as expected.
  • You could face increased energy bills if nothing is done.

This is the ideal time to reassess your setup – and upgrade to a modern, future-proof heating solution. Whether you’re a homeowner or landlord, NRG Electrical can help you:

We can also liaise with your energy provider to assist with any metering upgrades or smart meter installations, if required.
