More Pictures

Time for some more pictures...

This was one I wanted to take home with me, but the householder wanted to keep it as a "period feature"!

A modern take on a 1960's nightmare.

That's FP200 terminated into that plugtop...

This is a DNO's scrappy attempt to feed the next-door house from it's neighbour... I wouldn't like my neighbour to have access to my earth connection...

Nice pics secure!

What was the FP200 feeding, an offcut made into an extension perhaps?

Most proberably because the unedited ones are in your cache.
If you reload the page with "control F5" or put a ? at the end of the URL it should reload all the pics etc as new into your cache.

I wonder what will happen to the neighbours supply, if one of those service fuses were to operate? - seems a very shoddy way to run a DNO feeder!

looking at it i reckon the end terminal with two cables is the neutral and probablly has a solid link fitted. The two houses then seem to have seperate fuses for thier lives.

Yeah, I thought it was shoddy.

The earth connection to next door is on a brass terminal block, not sweated, so could come loose. The fuse for next door is in this house - what if it goes open circuit? Plus there is an identical fuse next door...not good discrimination.

Also, there is a cold-poured joint under the lounge floor of this house where that split-con joins up with the paper-insulated cable feeding next door....

What a bull's-up!
