WTAF is going on there?

unmetered on those small size tails?

One of the three is supplying the kitchen ring. The other two are supplying the storage heaters, 4 of them.

My mistake, 3 storage heaters.

Love the MCB that's just thrown in the top. Cool.

 

[cireland]

I particularly like that he's not only resealed the fuse but also used DI tails.
This is one of the best I've seen.

I suppose it saves going to food banks if you can cook for free, or the library to keep warm if your storage heating is free….

[cireland]

From 10 floors up, that would be ambitious.

The powercard meter had £133 in it too!

I would rent out so many outlets that the heat from the tails would keep my place warm

You mean I could just link a load of type 2 extensions together?

Theres a space for it and everything. So creative I almost like it

 

[cireland]

Is it because it's an off brand MCB that you don't?

 

[Raptor0014]

I wonder what the CPC is being used for?

I do love finding stuff like this.

Hole blown in unused pils supply cable. The surrounding area was covered in blast marks, still live. Western Power came and cut the cable in the footpath to make it safe.
