I recorded a Ze on a TN-S supply as 4.2ohms. Consumer unit is an all insulation Wylex twin RCD unit.
I spoke to the landlord of the property which was currently empty (now occupied) and told him he needs to contact the DNO with regards to the high Ze.

They came to site and this was the result! Essentially it looks like they're treating the high Ze with an RCD though all circuits are protected by 30mA RCD's.
I've asked the landlord to contact them and ask, in writing, for their reasoning behind what they've done and when they're going to return to maintain the earth that they're responsible for.
Also why we couldn't get away with leaving an enclosure flapping in the wind, two circular conductors through a single stuffing gland designed for one conductor. They seem to be a law unto themselves.
