Regarding Electric Meter Bypass

Yes - it's a single pole device. I suspect that although it was showing off it actually wasn't.
Why switch off everything anyway for a few days - what about the fridge, heating (even if gas) ???????????
Never pay on an estimated bill. Always read and understand your bill0 -
Both are after the meter....as long as the isolator is working properly turning off the consumer unit instead would Make no difference?0

Agreed - my suspicion is that the isolator was showing off it wasn't - they can be quite stiff and need a positive action.JC_Derby said:Both are after the meter....as long as the isolator is working properly turning off the consumer unit instead would Make no difference?Never pay on an estimated bill.
