Existing REC & house supply

[cliffed]

just thoughts on this one.
Existing supply to barns from REC,300 amp Tncs 3p,cabling to House,fused of this via 100 amp cutout,by REC
Sub main 16 mm 2 core,to house.
Will the main bonding conductors be the size of the existing supply ie: 300 Amps regarding the neutral.

If it is fed by a 2c submain cable then it will have to be tt if anything requires bonding.

Hi - yes with PME - TNCS it's the incoming DNO neutral that sets the size of it.

Is the 'submain' a private cable or DNO? If DNO they may be able to provide a TNCS connection at the load end if you enquire and you could then treat it as a 100a TNCS incomer..

It’s 2 core.

It’s 2 core.

TNCS incoming cables normally are 2 core.

TNCS incoming cables normally are 2 core.

2 core concentric, with the outer core being neutral and earth combined.

The OP hasn't stated the cable type, only that it's 2 core.If it's DNO it will probably be concentric.

It’s Swa cable not Rec concentric
