If the TI is happening irrespective of the restraint, then you just use the
EAMBER (non-restraint) energy, which in this case is identically EELEC. I
think this is what you'd want in your case, although it looks like you may
be trying to do TI on top of WHAM, and I don't know if there could be
unexpected problems there (I don't know that it is wrong, I just haven't
seen it before).
