    lead sheathed cable repairable

    Cheers Guys. thought it would be a can of worms myself, just thought there might be some wonder product that I hadn't heard about that might help. Will need to look first and see how bad, might be an option to repair and solder an earth to the lead which was mentioned but that might come back...

    two houses into one

    Thanks engineer,the job itself is a nice one to do being empty on the side that needs a rewire.What do you think about the two showers?I think if the two of them together draw a touch over 85amps and theres a few more appliances on then the 100 amp should still hold out for good length of time...

    two houses into one

    Thanks to all,at the moment it seems the dno want to charge for two supplies and that's why they want to run off one. Only problem with that is the two 10.5 kw showers and one 100 amp supply fuse.Maybe not likely to blow but would be a real pain if it did.Timbobelfast thanks for that, that could...

    two buildings into one

    Thanks engineer. looking at the heating system, it seems to be fed from the single phase supply in one building with pipe work and radiators continuing to the next and all pipework crossbonded back to the single phase board.

    two buildings into one

    Thanks for the quick response. they are not pme. one building is three phase and one building is single phase, and are being run as two seperate buildings, so there are two mets. the idea being it failed because the two mets need linking to create one.
