Hi all My extension to my 1974 bungalow is now on to phase 2 the weather in Scotland has been surprisingly dry but very windy. I am moving my electric meter and fuse box since it will be in the middle of the new bathroom. The Scottish Electricity man has been and advised me of the horrendous cost of moving the main power supply (between £1000-£1500)-but-apparently I can save some money if I can find the power cable on my property and they can break and reconnect power without digging up the road (£1000). Can anyone advise me on a meter I can hire that will detect my power cable it is 5 feet down at the meter but I suspect its only 2 feet at the public pathway by the road 20 metres from my front door. I hired a pulse meter the type that is about 21/2 feet long and send out a pulse? when you hold down a button--useless lots of false readings. many thanks Tom
