Hi,
I came across this today, to be honest the place could do with gutting and a rewire, there's no bonding to water or gas either, and that was the least of the issues.
Just wondered how old this fusebox is? I'm thinking about 1950's, but wondered if anyone else has any ideas? Plus the cutout, its rather old, cast iron, would be interested in knowing the age of this, am I correct in thinking that the very old cut outs like this do not have a fuse in them and are supposed to be fused after but before the meter? The cutout has the letters LCED embossed on the front.
Im just going to write a letter to the landlord advising them of whats been found amongst the other problems, it would be nice to put a rough date on it.
Any advice much appreciated, thanks,
