8 metre meter tails

Pete Murphy
Hello All,

Scenario is; conversion of basement with a 3P supply to 3 separate flats. TNCS. To get a new CU into the furthest flat I've proposed 25mm singles in Scottish Power red conduit. The conduit would be run in the correct zone in a void about 100mm above a plasterboard ceiling with no insulation at this point. I get the max current to 80A for this method and a fused switch would be installed at the origin after the DNO cut out Have I missed anything here? I'd assume to measure volt drop to the origin and disconnection times to the CU as per.

Thanks for your time,

Pete

    Hello and thankyou to all who posted,

    I've recommended 3 separate supplies, any other route is compromise, the buildings are 200 years old not least and need a flexible supply commensurate with the change of use. 

    Looking to derive from what I think is the 3P  box on the wall outside, then SWA into conduit. I've another site visit on Sunday to confirm then talk to DNO.

    Best regards,

    Pete
