Safe Disconnection to Undertake Work.

Scene. An old farm building now used as a double glazing frame maker's workshop.


The supply comes from an old shed about 40 metres away, where the meter is. The old shed has some 70s/80s rusty M.E.M. isolators that feed several S.W.A. cables that exist the shed in many directions underground. I suspect that one feeds the main farmhouse, another a rented cottage and the others various farm buildings. There is no clear labelling of the isolators.


What is the best way to locate the frame maker's  building supply where I have to work?


Somewhere I have a circuit i/d set, if I can find it, but that will need access to the live parts and I do not wish to turn off the wrong isolator.

     I do not want to turn off trial and error style as I may cause problems for other people and the farm. 


    Can't be too much of a problem because you can at least give them notice of a potential loss of supply and if it were really a problem, they'd have an automatic changeover generator installed anyway................


    How much notice do you think the yellow digging machine would give the users when ragging up their supply?


    People have got to find something to whinge about............


    I'd really have to ask myself, do I want or need to work on an installation in that condition and if I were to, what would people think of my ethics and furthermore, guess who'd be taken to task if something goes pear shape in the future?
