[QUOTE="Andy™, post: 545612, member: 2012"] yes, and i had exactly that a few years ago large house converted into 2 (downstairs and upstairs). both with their own meter an DB in the hallway downstairs. downstairs phones saying they are getting a shock from lots of things in the house. isolate their supply, still live. isolate upstairs (being refurbished, no one in at the time), not live. left upstairs isolated until owner could be contacted short version, builder had done some work, dead short L-E, TT system with a fault current of about 5a. no RCD, not enough to blow the fuse. made downstairs pipework etc live. would have also affected properties each side [/QUOTE]
