Yeah I know to be honest was a long days work and with a van vault safe it was all locked away with power tools , but they cut it open and stole the lot , learnt my lesson now

Yes this is what I’m saying they are saying they can’t get them , which is why I’m asking as someone surely used a supplier before on here that I could ask for

As long as can be through a single entry point going into galvanised box trunking they didn’t specify just single entry - which I normally do with 25mm tails but this is a larger supply so 50mm tails . Will try a 70 but don’t think all cables will fit through together still

I have in Gloucester where I’m based and all say they don’t do any to take 50mm meter tails together hence why asking here again

Would anyone know where I can purchase a gland big enough? This needs to be for all 3 phases and neutral? Normally deal with 25mm tails . However the meter company are requesting 50mm meter tails and I can’t find a gland big enough for all them to go through together .

Thanks everyone for the replies

Had it confirmed today it’s 110kva so I make that 159amp per phase then so 70mm tails as enclosed in a small section if 100 x 100 trunking . still waiting on energy company getting back to me but building designer has requested capable of 110kva 

Yes I agree building services designer has been on today and stated that the electric supply company want tails installed out of cut out ready for meter to be fitted and must be suitable for 110kva  - this is what he has been passed on by energy company to my customer 

 All I’ve been asked to do is to supply and install tails into the service head - and for these to be terminated before meter installation date - that’s the exact details I’ve got from customer 

Thank you for this
