Meter tails

Are old sized meter tails in some way an issue? I thought even old sizes were heavily overspecced. NT 11:01, 28 October 2012 (GMT)

It is not uncommon to come across 10mm tails (and I have seen 6mm tails) and VIR meter tails. I also often see single insulated meter tails that pass through a wall between the meter and the CU. I know that swapping the tails is not a DIY job but the tails are part of the electrical installation and worth a mention. --ARWadsworth 17:56, 29 October 2012 (GMT)
