[QUOTE="Andy™, post: 489859, member: 2012"] tails can be as long as they want. only requirement is if its over 3mtr (sometimes 2 or other depending on DNO) then you have to install your own fuse as you cant rely on theirs nope. no requirement for the cables to have a cpc within the cable. with the exception of SWA and some others, then you can easily hit the cable and damage a line without touching the cpc or the neutral so nothing will trip and there is no fault current. RCD for additional protection cant be used as you then cant comply with 314 [/QUOTE]
