Incomer

2 x 25 mm tails and a 16mm earth as the main incomer ! Never saw this before has anyone else? Couldn't find where they when,t too.. Don't they have to be 3 m max? Cheers

This ain't no wind up! Went to a flat 2day top floor , and before the meter there was tails and a 16mm earth coming up from floor boards into main fuse then meter then onto db. As they were tails I thought they would be a 60amp fuse elsewhere in the flat cudnt find one anywhere or outside.. But I did notice this green pipe along the soil heading straight towards door for upstairs flat ! Surely that couldn't b the tails??

Basically, you mean that rather then a concentric cable supplying the cutout, there was tails?
If this is the case, there will be a ryefield unit in the block of flats somewhere, if its a particularly scummy block it could be screwed into a riser, or locked under communal stairs etc. The ryefield will probably have 80A fuses for each flat.
I'm pretty sure that isn't the tails going over the garden

Yes that's what I,m saying but it was only 2 flats and there was no where to join it . No reiser no cupboard. Never saw that before

And your sure the tails don't come from another cutout in the downstairs flat?
Used to be common round our way to have 3 storeys blocks of flats with 3 phase cut-outs downstairs with L1 going ground floor L2 going to 1st floor (usually pyro) and L3 going to second floor (usually pyro).
