one problem, as i see it, is that if you are fitting new tails, these entail cutting the meter seals, which is a different teapot of prawns. suppliers get a bit touchy, thinking electrons have been pinched. what's everone's thoughts on this?
Cutting fuse seals is an everyday occurance. Meter fitters expect it, suppliers expect it, and sparks see it as their place to be doing it. Quite right too.
If you really wanna get someone's knickers in a bunch though, cut the meter seals. I really don't ever do it.
