Sorry folks
Maybe I have been to long with Pierre today, I have no calculations to back any of my posts up ,but the point I am trying to get across is that most large houses are supplied with a single phase 100a , which seems to be adequate for their needs , adding a couple of bedrooms should not add a ridiculous amount of maximum demand, divide this up over three phases and you should not exceed much more than 40a per phase on balanced ,load this is based on diversity to calculate VD ,and not the CCC of the cable
PS I Am going to bed now before I suffer the same fate as Paul the magpie
