my sister could smell burning down back of the shop yesterday and phoned NIE power, when they came out they said they were lucky there wasn't a fire as phase 1 is overloaded with 67A and phase2 only 15A and phase 3 doing nothing............ she was told to use standby generator till loads was balanced

havent been up to have a look yet as she lives 40 miles away.. but surely im right in thinking it must of been neutral melting? nshouldnt the cable be able too take 67A@ 25mm tails
