Cut out Seals.

[silver surfer]

Is it still illegal to cut the seals on the fuse cut out?

I"ll rephrase that, does anyone ever get prosecuted?

I hear of sparks who do Dist Board changes just cut the seals, pull the fuse, upgrade the tails if required, before installing the new CU.

We would never never ever do what you just suggested , but having said that we have never ever had the DNO out to do it either ?:grinningelf:

It's odd how they always seem to fall off.

You'd have thought they'd make them of stronger stuff

Oh you mean those metal wire things that are always sitting in bottom of Meter box? DNO should really learn to fix them better.

Every job I go to it appears someone has been there before me and cut them????

I know of a guy who worked for 30 years on HV who thinks nothing swapping CU boards with live tails!
