Hello,
We are converting a former office into 10 self-contained flats with kitchens, showers, heaters all electric, no gas.
We have been offered a three-phase connection from the National Grid, for 180 kVA, an LV Cut Out and CT Panel.

We then approached EDF (large business team) for a supplier agreement and to install a meter.

The total cost for the year is £19,000, standing charges alone are £7,000.
I'm aware that lots of properties have three-phase connections, some I know are paying around £0.45p per day, whereas what we are quoted is around £19.98 per day.

I feel a grave mistake has been made somewhere.
