Greetings I have a pole carrying overhead cables in my garden which I wish to re-route underground for a variety of reasons. UKPN has quoted an inordinate amount of money which does not even include the digging and conduits. I understand that there is a perspective in which they will pay for everything including the ducting. I bought this house 18 months ago and the wayleave they had regarding the pole has now expired. Does anyone have experience of getting UKPN to do this at their expense? Many thanks Claudia

Hi all, I am breaking ground on my build (Hooray!) albeit only to connect my temporary builders electricity supply ("TBS"). UKPN are laying the main up to the boundary of my property (£££ ). Is the following quote generally OK for the extra bits that I have to arrange: Ground mounted meter box, £600 (zero rated for VAT as supply & fit) Excavate a short length of trench from my plot your boundary to the meter box location (perhaps 2 metres under concrete, 485mm deep), lay duct and backfill with warning tape, form concrete plinth, and fix meter housing £950 (zero rated for VAT) Electrical work required to provide the earth and tails: awaiting a quote. How much might I expect this to be? Any advice appreciated. By the way, does the meter box need to be ground mounted? There is a panel fence there but not much else.
