    I had not realised that phases are not being identified in cables supplying new buildings. 


    I am not sure that they ever were. The odd one out was my late parents' home with a three-phase supply and service head (with coloured dots on each fuse carrier, IIRC) with only one phase connected. I had always assumed that it was because they were the last house in the road.


    That article is a bit of a rant, but if you were getting a new supply today, would you not ask for three-phase even if you use only one for now?
