Make sure to set correct derivation as you may have multiple wallets https://blog.blockonomics.co/how-to-restore-blockchain-com-wallet-into-electrum-f593ec79ab3d

# Can I restore a blockchain.info wallet into a electrum wallet?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2017-11-22)

If I have a blockchain.info wallet, I got the 12 words. Can I use these 12 words to restore into a new Electrum wallet?

After that, will the blockchain wallet still operational? Say, can it still receive funds or spend fund? If fund is received/spent, will it appear in the new Electrum wallet?

On the other hand, if I send fund / receive fund in the new Electrum wallet, will those transaction appear in the blockchain.info wallet?
