ring main style circuit feeding residential mobile homes

Hi guys, sorry late getting back to you.....interesting points have been put across. The distance from the 1st home to mains is approx 45 metres and then from the end home about 65 metres. Rather than bury the SWA i think he must just have a speed bump in the park rd built on top of the SWA cos theres lots of speed bumps!!!

It could make a difference if the original leg of this proposed ring is substantially shorter than the new leg or vise versa. The majority of the load will then tend to pass along the shorter leg of the ring.

Another possible solution, is to provide a parrallel cable with existing cable to a central W/P DB , and supply the Three residential moblie homes via short protected radials...

This is my point, you wont know until he calculates as to what benefit will be gained. A lot will depend upon what the clients require.
