Tonto is now Joe so I'm sure he won't mind if I reply on his behalf.
Thanks for your response Chris, and we are in a residential strata and three phase is available to our meter boards although we all have single phase meters. The meter boards with their meters are located on common property.
The issue is that the current power supply is only adequate to allow some owners to have 3 phase meters, but is not adequate if they all wanted to run instant hot water services and air conditioners. The cost of increasing the electricity supply to the building would seem to be prohibitive.
The question is can a lot owner go ahead and install a three phase meter at his/her own expense or is this an addition to common property and thus requires a special resolution motion being passed by 75 per cent of the owners at a general meeting.
Regards
Tonto
