I own a upper floor maisonette in a semi detached building split into two, Ground and upper floor.
The main electrics enter the building through the lower maisonette.
I recently received an email from the owners of the lower maisonette that their electrician sent to [email protected]
attached are a couple of photos that they sent
any advise regarding how I should approach this will be appreciated.
thank you

The property is split in 2
I am unable to connect the earth / clamp to increase the CSA because the upstairs is also connected as shown on photos.
I was intending to create an MET but I wasn't able to as didn't want to disturb your earthing ..
in a previous email from our neighbours they advised:I am unable to connect the earth / clamp to increase the CSA because the upstairs is also connected as shown on photos.

Our electrician has let us know that our main earths are interlinked. This means that neither of us can connect to the main earth without turning of the power from the other flat. He advised that this should be rectified by the DNO - district network operator (he said this is likely to be either UK Power or Scottish Power) and we can claim it as a safety issue. I am not sure whether this is the same as the energy provider.
I am going to ask our tenants to raise it with their energy provider and would be grateful if you could also raise it with yours so that this can be addressed as soon as possible.
