Breaking Main Fuse Seal..

[whazza22]

Hi everyone,

I'm sure this topic has been risen plenty of times.

I'm a qualified electrician and I am going to replace a consumer unit for a relative. I am not registered with NICEIC or NAPIT so will be getting it tested by the council.

Can anyone explain the procedure for removing the main fuse as it is sealed?

I know it will never be checked but would just like to know what everyone does. It's absolutely crazy that a qualified electrician is meant to call western power to remove the seal or replace the seal, especially if they have a business to run!!

Thanks in advance.

Money!

More hits more advertising revenue, ban DIYers and the visitor numbers will fall dramatically.

Can't wait for xxxxxx developments ltd to post their next set of figures!

These threads get really boring. Can't we have a section for threads that are of some use? Any thread starting with the words main fuse should be banned forever :13:

Agreed .... and I would add "Exporting ......" and "Supply to shed" too.

I have no idea that's why I want them banned because I feel stupid when you are all talking about it. I thought it was a pub you all went to
