    1 Meter and 2 flats

    You are right timehoward, but heating wont be an issue as there wont be any electrical ovens or shower and I am not sure about the gas as they only asked me for electrical opinion. You raised any interesting point about not having 2nd meter on original cutout which I was not aware of. Thanks...

    Question about Zs and PSCC needs some clarification thanks

    Thanks alot for the responses . so We check on Supply side of consumer unit for PSCC L-N to ensure if meter tails L-N accidently comes in contact, there is enough fault current generated to be disconnected by the main fuse? On the load side if L-N comes in contact then Protected devices such...

    Question about Zs and PSCC needs some clarification thanks

Sorry I am just trying to understand why on existing so many TT people are...
