Couldn'r understand what was going on with the two main fuses, both
being fully exposed. Were they the wrong fittings, or were bits
missing?


I only see one main fuse with two outputs and I only see one meter....

However considering the state of the house it looks like some sort of
squatters/ drug user/ drug grower house (I have worked in plenty of them).

Usual ******** about if the lights fail you are going to fall down the
stairs and will die..


There seems to be another large fuse holder with 2.5mm solid wire
soldered across it, but somewhere internal, not near the incoming
supply. Also fully exposed. It may be a standard thing (obviously to
be used with a fuse in it) for feeding a cooker supply or something in
olden times, but I haven't seen one before.


If the house used to be 2 flats each with own meter, would each
also have had its own "main fuse"?
