Discuss Energy supplier refusing to connect up new PME supply? in the Electrical Wiring, Theories and Regulations area at ElectriciansForums.net
TBF the meter installer was correct as it's a construction site......I hate EDF with a passion so advise all my customers no to use them and tell them to use EON or British gas. These two install isolators to which you can self connect to. EDF are so far up their own backside that they think they're above and beyond fitting an isolator and would rather walk off site, charging you for an extra visit, whilst telling the customer how wrong you were by not installing the rod etc.....
I worked.for the local board in Cumbria, a temporary supply is not allowed to use one earth, you have to fit a rod and RCD. Same applies to caravans, agricultural buildings etc.
They don't provide a earth terminal.Unlike us sparks working t0 the wiring regs the DNO operates to the ESQCR which requires them for new supplies to provide an earthing unless they deemed it would be unsafe to do so. Therefore they use TNCS (PME) systems for new supplies due to cost and if they believe it unsafe to make the earthing facility available, they will only provide a TT system.
