Gregory's Serverin UK a supply for a lamp post is as little as 500W and doesn't contain a meter. Its not impossible to take a stronger supply from the feeder pillar but is going to require a lot of upgrading of service cables in the street..

 that picture is from the UK (looking at the registration plate of the car), but there's evidence of recent extra work being done at the base of the lighting column suggesting there may have been a cable upgrade (its possible to do this without taking up the whole pavement with modern plant, Cadent were doing similar for gas pipes in my town). Using the space already occupied by the column does at least remove the requirement to get further planning permission.. |
@vfrmedia @davidho That's the problem with the idea isn't it
If you have to dig down to the main supply, you may as well just put a new unit up at street level 🤷♂️
