I moved into a new house today and whilst moving the sofa I broke the blanking plate off what I think is a junction box near the electric meter (it has two wires in one way and one the other way). I'm tempted to have a go at it myself or even just superglue it back on as it is just the box that is damaged and it seems a simple job, but I'm reluctant to even touch it as I've got no experience

Is this something a novice should even attempt or would I be better off just calling an electrician?
