Distance from main head to D/B ?

[dfitzplugs]

Hi, was wondering what or if their is a maximum distance that the disboard can be mounted away from the main head?
Cheers in advance for any info !

I’ve heard people say 3M but it would seem each DNO is different

Hi

looking thru previous posts 3M seems to be the favorite

if you fit a switch fuse on at the main service head then you can put your db anywhere. if you do not fit a switch fuse then 3 meters.

A DB can be mounted wherever you want it to be in relation the the intake, providing you install and protect the appropriate sub-main.

If you mean the length of meter tails then it's 3M internal and 4M if external (some DNO's may have different views) before the fitting of additional overcurrent protection is needed.

i would ring your DNO, but ive always understood it to be 3m before additional protection required.
