I've been wondering about this for a while...
Flat: 4 storey building, ex-council in Putney
Wiring: Twisted grey metal (harder than copper) wires with rubber and a hint of cotton around it. Crumbling, with one run burnt out in a distant past.
Earth bonding: Metal pipes (bloody hard stuff)
CU: 6x 5/15/30 Amp wire-yourself fuses, isolator switch on the right. No provision for grounding (done outside the CU).
The supplier side is much newer with good quality feeds and a propper ground wire.
It's all going, but just out of curiosity can anyone offer a guess how old this stuff is? I've played with electrics since I was a child and I've never seen something this old.
