Suburban filling station

lyledunn

This is a new site in a densely populated area. TT 400A TPN DNO supply. The site is pinned to earth by electrodes at various points, several along the wooden perimeter fence you see to the left.

The DNO Tx is immediately behind the metal fence. The whole surrounding area is PME. DNO would obviously not provide a PME terminal but given the proximity of other buildings, is it prudent to consider the site as TT?

    I can see why the owner would not be convinced about installing EV chargers.

    Back in the 80’s lots of squash clubs were built, most are now gyms because you can get a whole class of people doing exercises in the space taken up by two people playing squash.

    Likewise, if you are running a petrol filling station with a mini supermarket you can have a far higher turn over from a couple of parking spaces with people nipping in for a mid week top up shop than you can from a couple of people sipping a Costa coffee from a vending machine whilst their car charges.

    On a urban site with restricted parking EV owners need to pay for parking, rather than for the electricity used, which is what I understand effectively happens in many locations, to stop them blocking other users access.

    Anyway EV charging is not currently an issue on this site.

    Actually many motorway services and filling stations now have drive through coffee shops, so people don’t even make it as far as a parking space, they just hand over their money and leave without stopping the engine.
