Another Electricity Provider
Has anybody opted out from Ibidrola They are telling me that (at my expense) I have to have a current limiting ICP fitted.Or they will charge me the 10kw rate even though I get home for the odd few days every six months or so and use minimal electricity.And in true Ibidrola fashion after I have it fitted they expect me to wait around for 4 weeks until they seal the ICP:frown:

Is there really an 'opt-out' from Iberdrola (only Endessa, I guess?). |
Re: Another Electricity Provider
The requirement to have an ICP is nationwide and not dependent on the individual supplier.
There are many alternate suppliers but unless you are a heavy user on over 10kw tariff you will be on the government controlled TUR tariff which is the same for all the suppliers. This may change soon when the TUR tariff is restricted to 3kw or less. |

Other threads have already discussed this - use an independent electrician!

Re: Another Electricity Provider
just been reading through a few other posts ref ICPs and minimum contracts......mine is for 1650w and has been since I bought the flat 10 years ago.After another call to Iberdrola they have told me to install a 10a breaker (they still can´t say if its single or double pole) which seems to have slightly up´d my contract;)

</IMG> As an aside the cost was €117.84 and the lovely Iberdrola people took this amount from my bank twice. Two phone calls and promises given but the money has not been replaced yet. Is anyone surprised. Graham. |

1.65kW is very low. I seem to recall that the minimum now is around 3.45kW so it looks like an increase is in order anyway.
