[QUOTE="SLIPSHOD & SLAPDASH, post: 19031, member: 16"] I had a call-out today. Little old lady who's lecky went off 10.30 last night. The fault was all four connections to the meter had never been tightened up. Not just a little loose but all, fully unwound. The meter was replaced 8 years ago (tag still hanging off the tails) and the fitter must simply had forgot to tighten the terminals before sealing the unit with one of those green plastic seals that anyone can purchase off e-bay.It was the neutral feed that had finally arced out. I did my good deed for the day and did not charge. [/QUOTE]
