    Meter Tails Incident

    if the meter tails were touching ten inches from he meter, and glowing red hot, this is very curious. For the sheaths and insulation both to have been nicked, and in a position where the two nicks actually touched, sounds very improbable. I was considering the possibility that a nefarious...

    What is this box and cable on the side of my house?

    p.s. If you don't get anywhere phoning them, write a very short letter and post it. It will be logged and passed along until it reaches someone who knows what to do. The Service Desks have limited training.

    What is this box and cable on the side of my house?

    If it is Unmetered Supply, then the DNO for your area will (should) have a record for it. Most of them are for street lighting, a few are for bus shelters and the like. The DNO is the company that owns the local network, it need not be the same as your Electricity Supplier (the company that...

    Re wire, to cap wires or not

    BTW (sorry) all the spreads I ever asked said that they take great care of their trowels, and would never risk nicking the edge by letting it dig into a cable.

    Re wire, to cap wires or not

    Unlike Tony, I can't see that plasters would attack the copper in modern electrical cables, since they are insulated in (usually) PVC and then sheathed in more (usually) PVC. So unless someone cut through both the sheath and the insulation, which takes a bit of effort even with a sharp...
