ESB Meter relocation

Presume the meter inside is prepay power or the like so that's probably where it has to go

Looks like the installer didn't even put cover back correctly on board , seen some dodgy work from prepay power installers

The cable they use works loose easy enough in clamp terminals seemed to be the issue

Terminals not tightened sufficiently either

You'll probably have a bit of work

Rec will want to drop board to regulation height plus other work

That's 2.25m to the top of the top row of breakers afaik

Ya I got the height confused with the old rule

Wonder what the crack is with the meter installer jamming it up to the ceiling , dunno does the customer need to operate it or not

Shouldn't be allowed if they do

Tidy wiring , that's a good sign

The main boards have improved a lot lately

Looks like he's just done a straight swop there

Needs a main overcurrent protective device fitted upstream of that board .Somehow i doubt it's been fitted

On the cooking they've been using 30ma protection going back a good bit on UK boards . Ovens are fine but I did wonder about the hobs myself

I thought that was only a DP main isolator there in which case you would have to have a separate MOPD regardless of tails length

If it's a DP MCB my bad

Ya i'm not sure myself . I'd hazard a guess it's an isolator

As you know yourself there has to be main overcurrent protection somewhere between Meter and Final Circuits regardless of distance.

Really can't see the point of leaving those boards at the old height there when changing

Ya could have more troubleshooting down the line with all rcbos on the old wiring

It's really only half a job imo , but rules are rules
