djk,
Thanks for that explain!.
I know what you mean about the price of MV Spur Lines.
Some city dwellers over here, that move out to the country, have an irritating habit of building thier new house as far off the road passing thier property as possible.
And then moan about the cost of the Spur line.
The Lines Companies used to charge for lines, from the Secondary side of the Xformer, usually only charging for the Service Line to the house.
In the world of User-Pays, these days, you pay from the load side of the MV drop-out fuses, poles, lines, insulators, everything, even the work crews cup of tea!. [Linked Image]
Just a small aside, is Wireless Internet used that much in the rural parts of the UK?.
We will be waiting ages over here, before we ever get it, Auckland's got it though(like everything else:rolleyes [Linked Image].
