moveing a ccu

hi all just a quick one have been ask to more a fuse box by 8m but was unsure how long you could run meter tail without i isolator

 

[bugsy]

Generally 1m but is there any reason you can't install switched fuse?

 

[andrewcann]

there is no main reson i cant install a 100amp isloator

 

[a1guvner]

3 mtrs is the max

You mention isolator but you should be fusing this 8mtr section as you can't rely on the cutout as you means of overcurrent protection over this distance as the DNO would not be happy about it.
My advise would be to install a switchfuse then you can terminate an swa cable and it would then have machanical protection for its run.

In general tails should not be longer than 3m without a fuse protecting them, other than the main suppliers fuse.
