I have seen this red single core cable coming out of the old cast cut outs quite a few times now and just wondered what they were?
Anyone know??

Well the DNO have been in to up grade the fuse to 100A and never mentioned anything about it, I did think they may change the entire head whilst doing the upgrade but neverNever seen anything like that. I think I’d be having DNO out asap

I doubt they'd bother digging all the pitch out to sort it! I'd just leave it well alone, it could be a talking point at parties.Can't believe they've left that loop there. Doesn't look very safe. At least needs clipping/securing.
There's only one way to find out!I wondered whether the service cable is actually 3- or 4-core. The installer might have been issued with SP+N terminal equipment and instructions to provide an SP+N connection, but had one or two extra cores available that were unconnected upstream. A stub of cable was then sweated onto the spare core(s) in case they needed to be brought into service in the future, and the fact it is physically a loop at the moment is not significant.
