Default Lecky meter... safe as houses?

The electricity meter in my new flat looks like its been tampered
with. It has three large wires going into it. The red and black wires
are connected, the grey wire is hanging free and looks pretty scary!

Anyone got any idea whether it is safe and what is the grey wire for,
earth? I haven't been close enough to tell if its live!

Cheers

Tom
