Hi
I have a little question I hope one off you can answer for me.
I am getting my electric meter moved outside in to a white box so that it can be read from the outside.
I am doing the ground works myself to save myself some money ie putting the box in the wall and running the tails from the consumer unit to the meter and the electric board connecting it to the meter.
The problem I have is I live in a flat and the tails need to run out side and down the wall to the white box, so I’m going to use armoured cable but I need to know what size to use, the run will be about 10 meters and it for normal domestic use the tails that are used now are 6mm but are only 1 foot long and go straight from the meter to the consumer unit. Is it best to put a 100amp isolating switch between the meter and the consumer unit in the white box .
Thanks robfix
