Modify your power supply or "délestage"?
With the arrival of your French smart meter LINKY it is easier to trigger its electronic overload mechanism than was the case with the magnetothermal cut-off switch in the old disjoncteur de branchement (DB) . Upgrading to the next level in your puissance souscrite is not the only way around. Another possibility is the French system of délestage (load shedding). Transported from TotalFrance to Frenchentree and then to NFF this summary.

@ Hotrodder, sometimes it is the only way around when you max out a single-phase 12 kVA supply. Or go to 15, 18 or 24 kVA in three-phase. Single-phase goes up to 12 kVA, ten years ago still available in 15 and 18 kVA.
