Evening guys


Not sure if I’ve asked this before on this forum, can’t find how to search my posts. 


When UK Power Networks are replacing an underground service head cable, do they work on it live and if so how, I think saw a video on how they do it, but can’t remember.  Any help greatly appreciated.

    When we had our meter and service head (cut-out) moved, the pilc cable was cut and a length of split-con from the new cut-out was joined on. All whilst live.

    I have also witnessed a cut-out being replaced - like for like with the plastic type. Quite amazing to watch, since the location and access was poor.

    Both these jobs in the old MANWEB area.
