Is this something else I need to get sorted?

The earth wire from the CU goes to a block. From that are two wires that go into the loft, one goes through the wall to the outside of the building and is attached to somewhere in the external gas meter box, the other goes to the back of the flat and then comes back down and is attached to the...

The equipment is located in a cupboard above my bedroom door. You need a ladder to get access. The DNO guy definitely didn't look inside, so not sure why he reported that it wasn't a possible fused neutral situation. Hopefully sending the photos will prompt the DNO into actually sending someone...
