We are looking at getting some building work done which means ideally a rewire & consumer unit move. I've read around on the Internet & seem to get conflicting info. Our supply comes in at the side of the house into what is currently a garage. This will convert to a study so i don't really want the consumer unit in there (as it is now). If we can extend the meter tails by about 4m (i've found 5m cables available) the new consumer unit could go in the new utility area or hall. I've then read that meter tails can't be burried in the wall?? (despite just moving from a new build that certainly did have them burried!!). I've also read that they can only be 3m yet read elsewhere they can be longer but there needs to be a switched fuse by the meter?? Attached is a pic of the current meter. I guess it's down to the DNO to fit a switched fuse? If that is the case can we also request a new digital meter? Thanks for any advice. Hopefully the costs aren't as bad as moving the gas meter 1m (over £1k!!). Our old(new!) house deffo had a switch by the meter.
