Help! Who needs to fix this part of electrical supply?

Bit of an emergency!

Have been experiencing regularly flickering lights on and off for the last few days (think it's limited to downstairs, but not 100% sure). There has also been a thumping/vibration affecting a wall mounted cupboard and a nearby fridge (enough to vibrate dishes/bottles, we thought it was next doors washing machine).

Anyway, today wife noticed a 'fizzing' noise coming from the cupboard with our electricity meter and I can see sparks coming from a cable connected to some of the wiring before the electricity meter.
