Hi,
I've just bought a house and there's no power at the consumer unit. I've looked at the distribution board and it's clear (to me anyway) that the CU cables should be connected to the 100A switch on the board but I wasn't sure who is responsible for reconnecting it. I spoke to a very helpful guy at EON who suggested that it's up to me to appoint an electrician who can then connect the cables but he didn't want me to send a picture of it and I had to explain the wiring as best I could. I've attached a photo of the board and it does seem as though he's spot on. He even suggested I could do it myself if I know what I'm doing
Please take a look at the photo if you can and let me know if this is indeed a job for an electrician - thanks
