London Consumer Unit Fires.

Zoomup
It is comforting to know that there are apparently no consumer unit fire these days in London (or elsewhere) since all of the plastic consumer units have been replaced by metal enclosure types.


But, do not forget that there might be lots of sub-standard cable cooking and smouldering in people's homes installed years ago.


Lest we forget.........

    You could measure the diameter of the cable using vernier callipers.  From that calculate the cross-sectional area, and see if it's what it is supposed to be.
