Single phase domestic supply wire gauge

[NanLaew]

As it says on the the tin, what's the recommended/mandatory gauge of wire from the light company's meter to the house breaker/CU? No extraordinary power needs here, just a standard, +3 bedroom, single-floor new-build.

 

If possible, what's the nomenclature on the labeling for this wire?

 

Thanks!

Do check with the local PEA office but for a 15/45 meter on a reasonably short run (30m or so) 16mm² copper or 25mm² aluminium would be the stuff. 

 

Is it running overhead or underground (different cable types needed).

Thanks for that. The local PEA will advise if any different from your suggestions.
