I have read on forums that you are not permitted to install consumers equipment on a meter cupboard board, is this a fact? or urban myth?, if fact, a point of referance would be good.
I have made numerous phone calls trying to confirm or otherwise to my electricity provider and network supplier and both are passing me back an too.
Guidance notes recommend not doing it, but that is all they are, and that is inconsistant!
My generator transfer switch will hopefully live in the meter cupboard if their are no red cards.
Any help would be good
Cheers
Just some more pics of the transfer switch decied after chatting on here that a method to announce that the utility power had restored when running on genny would be a good idea, hence the switch which when in the off position will mute the local 230v sounder.
The switch is a lockable one i.e you have to lift the toggle to allow it to either turn on or off, bit like selecting reverse on your car , this is so it can't be knocked either on or off.
will show you a wiring picci when its loomed nice.
Fantastic setup and very well put together. This is definitely the route I will take. Look forward to seeing the finished switch installed and working.
Will start working on my own now!
Cheers Andy,
