It is good to be aware of it, but to calibrate if action is really needed or not. we also need to be aware how common this is as well - my earlier remark about cast  iron and asbestos is not totally flippant - there are a great many things that could be a risk -  but we need to focus the time and money on the ones seen frequently in the wild - as the ones most worth worrying about.

So if we could find out how many times the 'A19' call has been made by meter 'operatives' compared to say smashed fuse covers, or evidence of overheating which also have their own, different 'A ' codes that would be germane. There may well be a problem with the state of company cut-outs generally, after all in the modern privatized world no-one is really looking at them, but it would be good to know the 'top ten' most common dangerous things to look for - avoids focusing on what may be a distraction.

This is a fantastic idea - thanks Mike. I'm going to try and get this data - and see if we can establish what the top ten most common dangerous things to look for are.
