Temp Site Supply

NE-ELEC-12

Hello,

I am hoping for some help/guidance from the community 

I am currently applying for a temp site supply for the construction of 6 bungalows....

I am after some guidance on what size supply i should apply for....

Thanks

    wil there be electric cement mixers / demolition hammers etc and how many people are working at once?

    A big site with 6 large teams one per house, at work together all going at full blast all day, may need 3 phases. 
    If it is a core team of  3 guys at a time plus occasional specialists doing all 6 but one after the other at a sensible pace, then actually the no of bungalows is not so important except for the duration, and as per Broadgage's answer, the biggest single load is the tea making and a microwave... So, how big is the site hut ;-)

    What loads are expected to be used ? Just power tools, a few lights and a kettle ? Or well equipped welfare facilities with electric space heating, electric cooking and electric showers.

    For the former, a single phase 60 amp supply should suffice, for the later is more likely to need 100 amp single phase.
