External wall insulation and mains supply

Former Community Member
Former Community Member

I'm having external wall insulation installed on my house, and the mains supply to the house is via an overhead cable. The insulation installers have put the insulation over the mains supply cable, i.e. where it's clipped to the wall between bracket and meter box. The DNO is Western Power. 

My question is, is covering the mains PME cable with 90mm of insulation acceptable practice? 

Thanks, Pete

    The Supplier‘s cable must not be concealed without their permission. You should contact them for permission / advice before the work begins. They may wish to temporarily locate / protect their cable during the work, then re-fasten it to the new outer safety later. 

    Regards,
