Hi , I am have recently installed a new shower circuit in a flat which is in an block of around 20 flats.

The main service head is a 3 phase 4 wire that goes into a sub board that distributes the flats.

What information needs to go on to the EIC supply Characteristics? (by the way sub board is locked)

Advice appreciated.
 
Ze, PFC, size of supply conductors, rating of supply fuse/s. voltage. no of phases. it's all boxes on the EIC.
 
I understand where this information needs to go, but what information the main service head details or the details of the fuses in the sub distribution board ( which is locked)
 
IMO, the supply characteristics are to be determined at the point of supply entering the building i.e. at the head and main isolator for the whole building. readings at the sb-main ( Zdb etc.) should also be taken.
