Hi Guys, Ive just wired in a 7.5kw shower and as there were no spare ways in the CU I added an RCD unit with meter tails ready for the electric provider to fit to the meter.
The Electric provider guy came and couldnt fit the tails in as there were no space in the meter terminals.
The Guy left a note back at his office to say the contractor should have wired the tails straight into the CU. (I guess meaning via a henley block).
That thought did cross my mind on the first inspection but as the meter tails providing the whole dwelling are 10mm and as there is a small ring main, water heater, lighting and the new shower, I thought better of it.
So do I get the Electric provider to change the incoming meter tails to 25mm or do I risk getting into trouble for breaking the meter seal.
Any thoughts on this.
