Hi all
has anyone here upgraded their incoming electric to a 3 phase supply? I’m thinking of doing this at the same time as renewing my driveway to avoid digging up in the future for a car charger, induction boiler etc.
In doing this, would you NEED to do anything with the existing consumer unit (I.e to balance loads across 3 phases) or is this just a ‘nice to have’?
I’m ideally thinking of upgrading to 3 phase, having 1x phase for the house without having to change the existing consumer unit or wiring, 1x phase for the garage (future car charger) and 1x unused but I’m guessing I’ve not understood / oversimplified things.
Any thoughts and advice appreciated!
thanks
