My new abode is currently TT with a reported Ze of 190 ohms. It's sitting on granite and the prospect of driving in multiple rods is not particularly appealing (which, presumably, is why we haven't been able to locate from the previous owner). I've contacted WPD and they confirm that PME is available. Is there any reason why I would not accept it? (Apart from the fact that WPD want to charge £163.03 whereas my previous DNO did it for free!) We're very rural and the supply is overheads with a pole mounted tx in the garden.
Presumably if the Tx is in the garden then their earth electrode is as well, it might even be by the wall of the house, so there might not be much separation between the DNO earth electrode and installation rods anyway.
