Extra meter

LewdNcrued1

Hi there

I'm currently in the process of setting up a new business, I'm trying to convert an old pharmacy into a fast food outlet and have been informed that I need more electric and gas to the property.

I think this will involve getting an extra gas and electric meter fitted before I can even get the shop fitted.

Could anyone point me in the direction of someone who may be able guide me, in order to try and get this done as cheaply as possible .

Thanks in advance

You need an Electrician.

It sounds like you need three phase electric rather than single phase.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-phase_electric_power Use this for an explanation of what 3phase is and why its needed.

As far as the Gas, Speak to your gas engineer.

You will probably need a meter with bigger capacity, but you will need a service that give you enough gas flow. Contract national grid and request a bigger supply, then contact your supplier to request a consumption change to u16
