I am currently wanting evidence of good practise within England and Wales of cooperation with supply companies and contractors when cut out fuses need to be removed for replacement of a dis board etc.

If your a contractor and have tried to deal with the supply companies what is your experience. I tried the supply companies and after three hours of call center madness gave up the ghost.


I understand that it is "accepted practise" that contractors just get on with it and everyone turns a blind eye.
There are two issues with this the first ensuring safe isolation when persons are not trained /cant lock the fuse out

The second 2 recent fires were attributed to tails becoming loose at the meter after disturbance. The meter tails are not routinely checked by contractors as breaking the meter seals is considered a lot worse than breaking fuse seals.

Id like a working solution please
