My wife snagged a cable for the alarm system under the stairs where the fuse box and meter for the electricity supply is. I sorted the cable out and as I tucked the alarm cable in at the side of the fuse box, it came away from the wall. We had a rewire early last year and the electrician installed the fuse box which he secured to the plasterboard wall with just two screws. Anything I screw onto the walls (they're all plasterboard), I use plasterboard fixings.
As the work is over 12 months old, I'll assume its outside the electrician's guarantee. So will I need to call out another electrician to secure it or is it something I'm allowed to do myself? The only way I see I can isolate the fuse box from the supply is to pull the 100A fuse which doesn't a have a seal on as the electrician cut it last year to do the rewire.
