[QUOTE="Geoff Toms, post: 549523, member: 37456"] Thanks again. We're in Hampshire, but I'll worry about getting someone a bit nearer the time. We are still at the start of the process. We haven't officially applied to go 3 phase yet (though we will very soon). We've been reading all about the digging involved, and the meter cupboard. But thanks, really, for making it so clear to me. I can now see how you could set up the DB in advance, linking all 3 while it's a 1 phase, then undoing the link on the big change-over day. I don't know whether we have 3 phase already out in our road. This house - and the whole estate - was built in the mid-90s. I'm hoping that means 3 phase is as near as the street outside, and the only digging they'll have to do is up the driveway. (I got some of those diagrams from safedigs.co.uk but it doesn't seem to answer whether the street cables are 1 phase or 3) [/QUOTE]
