Have a job to price up today in Corsham, comes under SSE, they are happy to let you get on and pull the fuse if it is domestic and single phase. if you dont have any seals for when done they will happily provide you with some from the local depot.
Western Power on the other hand who are the DNO for a job i did on a farm literally a mile down the road, say you can not pull the fuse... In this case I wouldn't have pulled it anyway the thing was cracked and looked pretty stuck. But the principle is the same.
All that separates these two locations is a few fields. One side of fields you can pull them, other side have to pay close to a hundred quid and wait ages. If its new and looks in good nick then the seal fairy attends.
Anybody know why some DNO's allow them to be pulled and others don't? from the info on the SSE website they say they had approaches from the schemes to facilitate this. seems western power did not see a benefit to this process.
Thats my rant over.
