[QUOTE="binky, post: 558361, member: 490"] I suppose those writing the regs assume worst case scenario that grid voltage is only 230V, as if! I don't think I've seen lower than 245V in 20 years as the DNOs are keeping voltages up to cope with higher demands on out of date cable infrastructure. Ergo, even if the VD exceeds what it should be, everything still works fine. As for sheds, if the sub main is correct, and feeding a mini board, I don't really take much notice of VD for the lights. I don't see how you can apply VD for lights along the entire supply. [/QUOTE]
