You’re not an electrician then..  the connection point on my house has the 
earth connected to the return on the pole and that also connected to the ground 
stake (using 16mm copper).  You’d have to cut that link before dropping a phase 
on the return to get 415 past the distribution board... sorta impossible... cut 
the ground link first then it’s possible... but as every connection has the 
same, that’s a lot of ground links to cut to make it happen... unless you drop 
the return on both sizes of your pole and your ground stake and then drop a 
phase on that floating terminal ...
