Weird border installation

    Just wondering if anyone has any opinions on how to deal with this.

    I have some work to quote for with an installation in County Donegal. Whilst looking for the electrode and ESB meter I enquired about where they were. I was led to a box across a stream next to the building just a few yards away. However this is an NIE meter as crossing this stream brings you into County Derry. How should this installation be dealt with? Should it be an ET101/I.S. 10101 installation? (It will have a northern MPRN number presumably.) Should it be a BS7671 installation?

    Whatever side of the border the premises is on you'll have to go with that

    This is common along the border on large sites and one hotel in particular which sits right on the border they used to switch between energy providers. the same was also done up in Quinntown which would have had a huge energy demand at one point.
