The report says that the property had no earth wiring but I would have
thought that this was a neutral fault.

Thoughts?

I have seen similar twice in 30 years on two properties.


Both were TT supplies without RCD protection.

Looks like TT, phone pole on left as per BBC article (must have been
replaced by metal pole since streetview) electricity pole on right

Could the metal in the BBC picture be a protective metal shield rather than
the base of a metal pole?

Strange isn't it when a few dogs get 'shocked' and it makes the news.

Millions of chickens and pigs being shocked *and killed* every day and
most don't seem to care?

I wonder if someone walking their pigs to slaughter and them being
shocked by the pole would also make the news?

Cheers, T i m

If it's a humane form of slaughter then why not.

I very much care, pork in cider and roast chicken are very tasty on the
dinner plate.

I think they normally arrive by lorry.

Can't remember how many supplies I've seen that were fed by two wires into the supply cut out and a wire to the water pipe for an earth. It used to be pretty much standard practice back in the day. Terraces of houses often had a pair of vic wires on porcelain insulators running from the end of the terrace above the top of the doors and windows, with tap offs at each house
