TARIFF TABLE
Introduction
The Tariff Table allows the controller to be setup in such a way as to minimise the
home owners electricity cost. It comprises time bands in a 24 hour period and for
each time band specifies various parameters as detailed below.
Table 1 shows all the variables in Tariff Table. The values in the table are
indicated as an example only.
Table 1
Calculated values of reheat Upper and lower based on Comfort % for each band.
Table 2
Band Comfort % The comfort level is the inverse of efficiency. Having a high comfort level
minimises the chance of running out of hot water at the expense of
greater electricity usage. Holiday mode is achieved by setting the comfort
level to 0%, in which case only BioSafe will turn the element on.
