Very informative
Your really good and clear with explaining each step ... Thanks made alot of sense
Thanks not quite straight forward having a charger fitted thanks for info.
Do i need landlord permission to do this ? Also my fuse box and meter are not in the same room. Is this a problem?
Hi Leeroytrucks01, the landlord would need to grant permission and most likely have to make the call.
The meter not being in the same room does not cause any issues. Please be aware if the fuse is going to be uprated the meters tails may also need to be uprated.
Kind regards

Did you upgrade the main fuse yourself or get the DNO to do it?
Good Afternoon Mike,
We got the DNO to upgrade the main fuse to 100amps.
Kind regards

How much average to upgrade to 100?
@@VartiaElectrics nice one
@@AthiestProphet Hi AtheistProphet,
In this case the meter tails (main cut out to meter and meter to fusebox) were only 16mm2 and needed to be uprated 25mm2 to support 100 amps.
The DNO charged the client £170 to do this and fitted an isolation switch.
If the meter tails are a sufficient size for the relative amps, DNO's don't normally charge to uprate the fuse.
Please get in contact if you have any more questions
Spenergyworks want a long and complicated form filled out. I gave up, how is a normal person supposed to fill out that! I already have a pod point fitted so it’s not as if I can ask the fitter. I don’t even know who it was. It’s very silly. Now I just wait for the main fuse to blow then they do t have a choice but to come fit a bigger amp fuse.
