1: get the DNO to rearrange things to provide two seperate supplies. This is likely to be rather expensive though.
2: install your own private metering after the suppliers meter.
Which is the better option depends on what you want to do with the houses. If you want to sell them seperately you definately want to go with option 1. If you are planning to use them as holiday lets or similar number 2 is probablly better (both cheaper and means one less bill for you to deal with), if you are planning to put them on long term lets 1 is probablly better because it means any crap like meter bypassing is between the tenant who did it and thier supplier wheras with private metering they would be stealing the electricity from you.
Whichever option you choose you or your electrician will need to survey the wiring of the two houses to produce diagrams of it (I presume that there are no previous records) and if nessacery rearrange it..
there is only one meter
the 2 house were converted into 1 to make a residential home
i want to make it back to 2 houses
there was a meter in the other house which has been removed
the board it mounts on to is still there
The link between the 2 properties might just be a single cable to where the 2nd one used to have it's incoming supply, or all of the circuits might be intermingled.
Have a look at the labelling, and start turning circuits on and off to see how separate the 2 sides are.
