As per title I want to have a new supply and meter installed into a open fronted steel framed barn. The barn is clad with steel profile sheets on three sties with timber joists.

The supply will come to the barn in a trench from a nearby existing electric pole. What do I need for the fuse board and meter, it it as simple as screwing a heavy bit of chip board inside the shed to the existing frame or will I need to build a concrete block wall?

New supply from the utility company?

Probably best to ask them as they may have specific requirements that may vary company to company.

All our utility meters are mounted on block walls, but all internal electrical meters, fuse boards etc are all on 20mm OSB.
