Hi
I would be grateful for suggestions/advice regarding this -
We have a plot of land to which there is a 3 phase supply, the supply comes into a distribution box sited on an exterior wall (it was sited before any building was erected).
On the site there is now a small 2-room brick building and a wagon (like a caravan) both wired Single Phase fed from the distribution box, each has its own consumer unit.
There is now a 2-bed house being erected and we have to choose how to connect this up. We have 2 options -
1. Move the distribution box into the house, re-connect to main supply, re-route cables to brick building and wagon and wire up the house off the distribution box 3 phase
2. Leave the distribution box where it is (no change needed to cables to brick building and wagon) run a cable from distribution box into a consumer unit located in the house and wire up the house Single Phase.
Originally the idea was to move the distribution box into the house but we are unsure if this is actually the best option.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to which option is best or doesn't it matter?
Thanks
Kevin
