when it comes to ukpn bringing in the new supply- do they decide what supply based on the building and how many properties etc or do they need me to request?

Havn't done demand calcs yet- but ball park.......7flats (all led, 1x cooker, gas hob, central heating) + L/L lighting for 4 floors

likly to be a 125a TNP head? -so will not need CT equipment etc.

just head> 125a iso> r.b> meter> 60a iso> cu

Yeah sounds good to me .. You wouldn't need a CT chamber any way mate as the incomer wont be metered as the Ryefield will be sealed by the meter operator.

Off topic again but why, with the TiVo and sky q boxes, do you need to be able to record 4 or 5 channels and watch one at the same time? Has the world gone mad or are they doing it just because they can? There wouldn't be enough hours in the day to watch what you've recorded unless perhaps you . . don't. . . have. . a . . job!

I don't know if your unfortunate to be unemployed, theirs almost too much to watch; Jeremy Kyle, Storage Hunters, Cowboy Builders, Wright Stuff, This Morning, Judge Render, Countdown, Pointless, Tipping Point, Gone Dine with Me, then you've got the soaps and being topical the news channels and the weather, hard to pack that in 24 hours. Then spending pointless hours on social media and forums, Electriciansforums.co.uk
