An emergency call-out to a meter box where the mains had failed. Made safe on the spot, repaired properly, certified before we left.
Mains do not fail quietly. This is what we found at the meter: the tails charred and split where they land, with smoke damage around them.
How it went
- Isolated and made safe before anything else
- Damage traced back and the failed conductors identified
- Repaired properly, tested and certified before we left
Made safe first, fixed properly second. Never the other way round.
