You need this for the connection calculator. It's printed right on your equipment — you just need to know where to look. Takes about 2 minutes.
Dutch homes call this the meterkast. It's usually a narrow cupboard near the front door, in the hallway, or in the garage/basement of older homes. You're looking for a grey or white metal box containing your smart meter and a row of switches.
Look near the top of the cupboard for a sealed block (hoofdzekering) — don't touch the seal, but you can read it. Count how many fuse holders are bundled together:
One fuse = single-phase. Three identical fuses bundled together = three-phase.
The rating is printed on the fuse holder itself — look for 25A, 35A or 50A.
