    Consumer unit top knockout

    Don’t know how true it is, but apparently they know when the meters are being tampered with and if there hasn’t been any power cuts in the area, one of the fuse police races round to the property.

    DB board keeps tripping mysteriously at night

    Loose connection for the flickering. Maybe a fridge or freezer kicking in during the night. When did you have the place last inspected and tested? Might be a good starting point.

    It looks like you have 3 conductors on your supply cable, but who knows what is going on inside the cutout. You could try contacting your DNO to see if they have a record of the supply type to the property. ESQCR regulations require them to maintain the earth, if they are providing you with one.

    Need a new drill

    Cheers Andy78, I will check it out. I did try replacement bushes once, but it works worse than with my old bushes in.
