I've just had a new workshop built and I would like to get a 100A supply into it but I'd appreciate some advice on the best way to achieve this.
All the cable run is internal to the house and will be about 10m total. The majority of the the cable run will be under an uninsulated suspended wooden floor (free air would probably be about the closest reference method). There will be a short section in trunking where it passes through a wall and then about 3m clipped to the wall up to the consumer unit.
I initially thought 25mm^2 3 core armoured but I think that may be overkill for this as it's not exposed to the elements or running anywhere that it might get damaged. The alternative I've been looking at is 25mm^2 double insulated meter tails plus a suitably large earth (at least 16mm^2).
At the supply end I have 3-phase coming in. I have the house on one phase and I was planning on putting the workshop on a different phase. What's the best way to split the neutral? I was thinking a 100A service connector block. I think this would be easier to wire with the meter tails so another benefit of that option.
Are there any other options? Does meter tails and a service connector block sound like a good solution?
Cheers.
