Well in that case, changing to 3 phase will likely be expensive and not
necessarily based on actual cost from what I've heard others mention.


If the feed wire coming into his fusebox really is 415V, then a second
phase is just sat there. A second fuse holder and another meter won't
cost much will it?

If the supply cable is alraedy 3 phase and nuetral and still connected as
such to the street cable, the cost would negligible as the extra fuse and
meter would be provided by the DNS.

If the DNS deems a 3 phase supply to be required for the installed
capacity in a property they will weigh the cost of any work against the
revenue stream from that installation .

Meter cost are normally recovered through the tariff daily standing charge
by the ESCO, the customers chosen electricity supply provider, which is
different from the DNS (the Distribution Network Supplier)
