Outdoor meter box

lyledunn
I note that the outdoor meter cubicle, sometimes referred to as a Pirelli box, is fast becoming a location for a small consumer unit to provide a supply to an EV charger in domestic premises. As I understand it, the box belongs to the householder so it would seem that providing DNO equipment is not compromised, there is no reason why this cannot be done?

    If someone is spending £25K+ on an EV they should not be penny pinching on having an EV charger installed at home and be prepared to pay enough to have a future proof supply and a charger that will charge their own vehicles and their guests now and in ten years time when they may have replaced the car, but not the charger.


    No one should have an issue with paying at least £1k for installing an EV charger at home if required.
