I have no reason to believe a sparky went in there, all a sparky
did
was
fit an electric shower, switching off the master switch on the
fusebox
inside the house would have sufficed.

Well the sparks would need to see what sort of supply it was if he
was
going
to fill in an electrical installation certificate for the shower.

What information could he possibly get from the meter box that would
be
applicable to installing a shower? Everything he needs to connect
to
is
in the consumer unit, and labelled for him.

Let's see.

Type of supply (ie earthing arrangements),

The earth will be available in the consumer unit. He connects to
that,
not in the meter box.

number and type of live conductors,

You can see in the consumer unit what is available. In this case, one
100A 240V conductor.

details of protective device.

Which is in the consumer unit.

Wrong, wrong and wrong.

Have a look at an electrical installation certificate.

Haven't got one, you tell me, you're the electrician. There is no
reason
to need anything other than access to earth, live, neutral, see what
breakers are there or fit one, and check the amperage is sufficient.

I have already told you. You need info from the cutout. The CU info means
**** all to your question

You're not telling me anything. In his CU the sparky would see the
amperage available to the house, the type of breakers in use, and have
access to live, neutral, and earth. He needs nothing more to fit a
shower.

If you say so.

Odd, you're usually what I consider the more helpful sensible bloke in here. Why don't you just list what you would need to see in the meter box that you cannot see in the CU, and why you need to see it.
