Why oh why 25mm meter tails?

[flukey]

Leave those meter seals intact
The cables from the cut out to the meter are not ours to play with
As flukey,the 25mm tails in the consumer unit can be jointed to whatever is existing,even if they are well undersized 6mm or such

The supplier can be notified to come and make that connection,it used to be £16.

They can then replace the cut out seal (that was removed for safety) at the same time if they want,or not,its their choice, their equipment, their responsibility

If they dont fit the new tails its not your problem, if the meter gets cooked, as long as the connection was requested the problem is theirs

common sense prevails, thanks des, now time for a beer, or 10 :lol:

YOU cant put 25mm tails into meter, but meter man can next time he comes

IF he can be bothered !!!!

The rotating disc electric meters are only rated at 80A, so should the cut-out fuse not be a maximum 80A?

DNO's - a law unto themselves!

and which tails are not their property then? the ones coming from the meter to the fuseboard? the meter you are not spose to touch cos that is also their property and it has a seal on it? so i essence we really shouldnt worry about changing any tails cos they are all sealed up and the DNO's :confused5:

read the post jason before posting this sort of tripe will you.......sinse when did i refer to consumers tails..eh?....

Totaly agree Glennspark, if you do get near 100A in a domestic setting I would hate to see what the quaterly bill was!!! and 25mm just dont bend as easy as 16mm and im sure the design of most the domestic stuff aint designed for 25mm, all the main switches seem to destort and argue.. but nothing a hammer cant fix "I will get that tail in"

Very Funny that Mate!!! your a comedian !
