Discuss Domestic metering Issue in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Morning all,

I'm currently rewiring a flat I've just bought which had the CU and old meter in a surface mounted enclosure that the previous owner built.
the problem is it's in quite a narrow hallway and it sticks out quite a way.
I have changed to consumer unit to a recessed one. The issue is the meter, the only enclosure I can find is around 500mm W x 600mm H and it's ugly as hell.
Does anyone know if there are any requirements/regs around the size and type of meter enclosure, I was hoping to use something around 320mm W x 300mm H x 75mm D with a hinged lockable door as its only going to house a smart meter and isolator.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated
