Installation (domestic) without Service Head

Martyn
Canvassing opinion...


We have an Installation without its own service head fed from a 50s/60s ryefied/MSDB style unit.


The Ryefield/MSDB is inturn fed from a 200A Tp&n supply head belonging to DNO. No visible issues other than supply to MSDB being unsheathed.


The MSDB has no key or tool to open, has direct access to 70mm lugged cables with door closed. 


With door open for fuse access there are no barriers, all removed and lost. 


Service cables are single insulated, tails to meters insulated & sheathed direct in to this unit. 


EICR for one of the supplied flats, does it pass or fail?

    If the flat is otherwise fine it must pass. This problem as Mike says is nothing to do with the flat owner or whatever. I assume the metering is in the flat and is owned by the DNO. As you are direct from a 200A head, perhaps they are getting free Electricity? The DNO should be contacted to see what the arrangements actually are, I'm sure they will know.
