Please take a look and tell me if I'm correct?

Guys,

attached are a couple of pics of my meter, incomer and tails.

having been reading up on the site lately I went for a look at my installation out of curiosity.

I appear to haev a 100Amp incomer.

The feeds to the meter are by the look of it bigger than the those from the meter to the CU.

I'm assuming 16m and 25mm respectively though they don't measure that thick (however looking in wicks the other day 10mm earth bonding cable isn't actually 10mm diameter either, so I assume it's not that easy)

So my first question is do you think I have identified them correctly? and secondly if I pulled 100Amps (I know thats unlikely in a domestic scenario, but still) are 16mm tails techincally sufficient?

I'm interested in both practically and from the regs point of view.

thanks in advance.

Mark.

anybody?

anyone tell me what actual diameter a 25mm and 16mm tail should be?

 

[Adam_151]

Approx overall diameter of 16mm² tails is 9.1mm

It also looks just like a TNCS/PME installation, with the earthing cables coming out of the side of the Service Fuse Block.

Looks like 25mm DNO tails, and 16mm consumer.

although it says 100 amp on the service fuse it may have 100 amp fitted, normal i think is 60amp

So you were one of two sad persons posting on Xmas Day!

Why were you worrying about your tails on this of all days?
