  1. UPDATE - no luck getting SSE to budge at all on the price so looking into outsourcing as much as possible to an ICP or IDNO. Looking down the enormous list of possible companies is rather daunting - who to approach for quotes??? Can anyone recommend any particular companies. I have Clancy Dowcra doing the trenches for water connection - has anyone used them for their electricity? Thanks in advance.
  2. No mains drains - I have to fit a powered septic system as we are discharging into a watercourse.
  3. Thanks ProDave. I had been considering using a mole as my next door neighbour did this for his water connection. The mains water actually runs through the front of my plot so no road opening required for that.
  4. No and we have decided against the heat pump - going for biomass. It's a very modern building so maybe they are assuming we will be installing the heat pump.
  5. It's a tiny country road. I was wondering about the possibility of using a mole to dig under the road to avoid the cost of opening it and the cost of traffic management?
  6. Sorry not sure what you mean by other services sharing the road crossing? Do you mean water etc?
  7. This is all they have provided me with at this point - I have asked for more detail. Connections: 1 Domestic Lay approximately 85m of LV cable. The proposal is to lay approx. 70m of new mains cable along 3rd party land, across road and into customers boundary and pot end. From pot end lay approx. 15m of single phase service cable terminating at 100amp cut out at internal meter position. Install 1 substation SSEN will upgrade the existing transformer to accommodate your load request.
  8. I have just had a quote from SSE for a single new house connection of over £12,000. Just wondering if anyone has had any success in reducing these costs significantly by outsourcing the non-contestable works to a ICP or IDNO?
