PeterW Posted October 31, 2016 Posted October 31, 2016 Does anyone have a decent supplier of meter boxes ..? Is around the £30 inc VAT about the going rate for one delivered ..?
Barney12 Posted October 31, 2016 Posted October 31, 2016 Mine came from TLC: https://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Main_Index/Boxes_and_Enclosures_Index/Mitras_Meter_Box/index.html
Onoff Posted October 31, 2016 Posted October 31, 2016 Had this lot's catalogue through the other day, what they don't do in "plastic"..... http://fascias.com/Meter-Boxes
ProDave Posted October 31, 2016 Posted October 31, 2016 i bought two standard flush meter boxes for about £20 each on ebay.
PeterW Posted October 31, 2016 Author Posted October 31, 2016 Cheers Yesss do them near me, and the merchant price is the same as TLC without delivery so may go that route. Next question is where to get a length of DIN rail top hat..

Unfortunately that applies to the standard design of meter box. I have yet so see one that does not have two tiny flimsy little pins as hinges. It seems to be what everyone makes. they need to be treated with care.

Just looked elsewhere and we were recommended Jewson ones: http://www.jewson.co.uk/electricals-plumbing-heating/electricals/meter-boxes/products/EGM06004/surface-mounted-meter-box/
