Hi,
I'm just going to get the consumer unit updated as it's the wire wound type. When one of the electricians came round he took the cover off and checked a few things. One thing that was noticed was the red/black with a thick insulation didn't have an earth. After checking it seems that this goes to the detached garage where it doesn't have a local earth either! There's a fuse box in there with 20A and 5A fuses.
So I assume this is bad. What are my options. Running a new cable would be surface mount and be a right pain. Help.
