Tail sizes - max demand suggests too small

[LlandrilloSpark]

Fellas

Im just writing up the 5 flats I inspected last week, all the service heads/fuses are new to within 3 years, the cut out fuses are all 100A and tails all 16mm, I know discretion is sometimes needed in this area, on some flats the Max demand reaches 90-100A whilst in others 65-75A, would anybody agree that this is basic circuit design and those with the high max demand need the tails changing?

cheers

Are the cut-out fuses actually 100A or is that just what the label says - big flats?

I always think 100A cut outs 25mm tails, 60A cut outs 16mm tails.

i would concour with this

Use common sense and a bit of wet string. A one bed flat, 100A? Come off it!
Mind you there could be a lot of horticulture going on.
