[QUOTE="Sharpend, post: 500480, member: 17152"] What area are you in? all you need is to ask a local spark - ask work colleagues, family neighbours who they have used - if they will take a look to see if your existing meter tails need upgrading for a 100A supply. Leave the rest to the spark to advise. Shouldn’t take that long to do if he/she is competent. then arrange for DNO to carry out upgrade of their cabling if required, as Dave hinted at there are ways to get it done pronto if it’s not already prearranged. The DNO may well upgrade the fuse for you at same time, although not always. It’s more about who comes out. otherwise you will have to request the upgrade from the DNO in which case there may be a charge? [/QUOTE]
