Alte doppeltarifzähler (Nachstrom)
Hello. Sorry for writing in English, but I don't speak German (I know only a few words).
There is one curiosity that puzzles me: how the old doppeltarifzähler that worked for 2 hours tarif, day and night (Nachtstrom) worked. I never seen even one in a picture (I searched with "Google") so I'm a curios how they worked before the days of the tranzistors and radio waves? They had a clock conected or there was a signal somehow transmited via the power (strom) lines or a telephone line?
Probably a book like this https://www.booklooker.de/B%C3%BCcher/S ... rTquW01ZZl would help me, but finding one in Romania. Probably there is an online book, but since I don't speak German...
Apromexatevely German translation ("Google"):

Sie hatten eine Uhr angeschlossen oder es wurde irgendwie ein Signal über die Stromleitungen oder eine Telefonleitung übertragen?

Re: Alte doppeltarifzähler (Nachstrom)
Good morning,
there is a signal modulated in the powerline. In german its called Rundsteuertechnik, maybe you can translate the Wikipedia article for you. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rundsteuertechnik

Re: Alte doppeltarifzähler (Nachstrom)
I thougth that one of the methodes could be transmiting a signal via the power line, but didn't had any methode to see if that was correct. They used that signal back in the '20-'30's too?
Intresting too see that the tarrif for hot water boilers was different then for the rest of the household appliances.
I have this in my collection

hi
the ,,Transkommando" System, an early version of the powerline control Systems was invented in the mid 30's. here is some information about it, mayby you can translate it with google.

Re: Alte doppeltarifzähler (Nachstrom)
I transalted it. Intresting system. The mechanism makes me think at teletypers (fernschreibens). I only read about teletypers, since I'm not so old to have interect with one (trough all some where probably in use up untill I was around 22-23).
Rundsteuertechnik means radio technology?
They quited the system because it might affect some devices?
I wonder if the could cut the power from distance - one reason I'm glad that in the apartament where I live there is still a classci k.W.h. meter.
The system made by "A.E.G." camed into the mid '30's, but the book from the link of the 1st post mentions schaltuhr. Was this for the 2 tarrifs or it was a user comand relay?

Re: Alte doppeltarifzähler (Nachstrom)
on old electro meters you had connectionpoints for a 220v controlvoltage. it switched mostly by rundsteuertechnik or schaltuhr from day to nightmodus
Re: Alte doppeltarifzähler (Nachstrom)
They used this methode? http://rundsteuerung.de/entwicklung/transkommando.html
or other one?

Re: Alte doppeltarifzähler (Nachstrom)
RODALCO at youtube shows the ripple-injection system: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxwxP_i3-VE (and other Videos from him)
That should be how the "Rundsteuesystem" in germany works.

Re: Alte doppeltarifzähler (Nachstrom)
I've looked. Intresting.
But I want to be sure that doppletarif camed only in 1935 and no system was before it.

Re: Alte doppeltarifzähler (Nachstrom)
But I wonder, there where magazines that published by the electricall companies (or German had a single one even befrore W.W. 1 or 1949) that could mention this. I don't speak German, so I don't know for what to look.

Re: Alte doppeltarifzähler (Nachstrom)
The best-known magazine for electricians was only created in 1947 as part of a craftsman's newspaper and has only been an independent magazine since the mid-1950s
Every larger city has or had its own electrical supply company, although many companies have been bought up or have joined forces in the meantime.

Re: Alte doppeltarifzähler (Nachstrom)
What is the name of that magazine? In Romania we had "Buletinul/Revista GazElectra" ("The GazElectra Bouletin/Magazine") of Societatea Generală de Gaz şi Electrictate Bucureşti (General Company of Gas and Electricity Bucharest), from wich I was able to find some information. This company operated in Bucharest and around it, but had som power lines too. I thought that maybe there was such a magazine in Germany too.
So Germany (West) never had something like E.N.E.L. (Italy) or the National Grid (United Kingdom and Northen Ireland).
I wonder what was the tarrif for electricity in the '20''s and '30's. In Romania it was very expensive, so even in Bucharest a lot of housegholds couldn't afford it.
This book might helped me, but I missed it.

The magazine is "Elektropraktiker".
I found this page

and here is a coin meter which was produced sice 1920 for 10 pfennigs you got 217Wh

In 1888, 1 kWh cost 80 pfennigs, the house connection 250 marks. In addition, there was an annual rent of 6 marks for an incandescent lamp, you had to pay 12 marks a year for an off switch for three lamps, and an additional 15 to 40 marks were due for the meter. A worker at the electricity works earned 22.5 to 27.5 pfennigs an hour.
