    And also ... did you find the mains board / fuse box in case anything ever trips or blows - and also to be able to switch off in an emergency?

    I suspect these will be behind this panel with the meter, but don’t know until I go back to the flat with my drill. 

    I’ll be checking it in terms of switching things off, etc. 

    I’m so glad I posted on this board - there’s things that you guys have mentioned that I possibly wouldn’t have thought of!
