[QUOTE="UNG, post: 560933, member: 8931"] At the moment I believe the unlooping comes under a renewables initiative to increase the number of installed chargers although my understanding is it doesn't cover network reinforcement if needed, as mentioned in an earlier post I have been told that the street needs rewiring so I can install an EV chargepoint for my customer, currently there is no mention or indication of cost or if there will be a charge for this work A lot of the old cable infrastructure is under sized for today's electricity useage The big problem with the old underground cabling is the overloading that is now occurring. The DNO diversity only allowed something like 3½ - 4½Kw of load per house depending on whether it was heated by gas or electric that has been updated for those who are interested in the LV network design this document is an interesting read [URL]https://www.nationalgrid.co.uk/downloads-view-reciteme/615498[/URL] [/QUOTE]
