Does anyone know off the top of their head how to wire a SangamoSchlumberger teleswitch for Eco 7. A diagram would be even better!

Rewiring domestic property where customer originally had storage heaters. The plan was to remove the storage heaters and install C/H. The customer has done a u-turn and now wants storage heaters back in on Eco 7.

Unfortunately I removed the tails from the Henley blocks and have no idea how to wire it back in. I know it's a long shot but any help would be appreciated.
 
Is it economy seven or convoy 10 I think, white meter rate where it boost t times of the day? If so I can probably he'd some light on that having just done one.

Just to add, mine was for storage heaters on three phase.
 
The whole teleswitch.

From left to right I'm presuming it's something like this....

Live in for storage heaters

Live in for antenna control

neutral in for antenna control

Switch Neutral for coil in dual meter

live out to DB
 
E7 Teleswitch
First terminal on the left is Permanent live in (fed from the outgoing side off the meter via a splitter/ Henley block ) , second and third is the live and neutral power supply for the teleswitch in that order( Live is via a slidelock fuse) next is the switch wire back to the E7 dual rate meter ie the switch wire , and finally on the right hand side is the outgoing off peak supply .

This is pretty much how I had pictured it. However on the last install there was definitely not a slide lock fuse. It was just fed from the live Henley block
 
The terminals 2&3 can only accept up to a 10mm max , and the switch wire back to the meter is the same so needs fusing down if you have a 60/100 Amp main fuse , there is also an over ride switch on the right hand side with a neon beside it .

This unit is very old mate. Original tails in and out where at least 16's. The way you describe it sounds correct. However there's still some grey areas now you are saying it should only take 10mm max. The switch wire back to dual meter is 10mm mind.

Back in those days they were often fed straight from the splitter , and usually fed by a bit of 6mm D/I single , before going over to teleswitches all the old Sangamo timeclocks that I put in had slide lock fuses for the clock supply, so I carried on the same when installing teleswitches , we started installing these about 1986 onwards.

I'll wire it up tomorrow mate an let you know how I get on. 99% sure in it now to be honest. Thanks for the reply.
