Just had a guy from my supplier round to investigate re quoting me for a meter move. Which looks like being unreasonably expensive because the supply cable loops through my service head to supply my next door neighbour:
A question which occurred to me after he'd left is is there a link inside the head between the sheaths on the two cables?
Or does my neighbour's earth rely on me not disconnecting (or accidentally breaking) the two main earth cables which go to my MET?:
You can't see it in the photo, but one of those 2 conductors is sweated onto one cable, the other onto the other one. And so are even more undersized than I'd previously thought (hadn't realised until I poked about just now that they went to separate sheaths).
