Additional DBs via meter cupboard
Hi all - saw at a family member’s recently. You’ll see here two SWAs which feed outbuilding DBs connected directly to the load-side of the meter via either henley blocks or through a 100A main switch. Am I right in thinking there should either be a dedicated fused switched isolator for each of these SWA or a small board in the meter enclosure (yes, usual caveats about people saying that will ensure you end up with a life sentence in prison…) with appropriately sized MCBs for each of the SWA?
Just to check I’m on crazy and that this is quite dangerous, since the only protection for the SWAs is the 100A DNO fuse?
