Hi , I'm new here so please be gentle.
I am the owner of a ground floor flat in a converted block of 3. The meters for all 3 flats are located in my cellar. The issue I have is that the main 3 phase lead sheathed supply cable spans across my cellar on a flimsy piece of wood. Above it is the bathroom. Recently discovered was wet rot in the joists underneath. It is entirely possible that my bath coiuld have came through the floor and rutured the cable. Its also entirely possible that if a child got down my cellar they could swing on it etc.
Do I have a case to get the cable and meters moved for free. I ask as if I was required to pay I 'm sure the other 2 flats would baulk at their share of the cost.
I have attached a pic of the cable. DNO is SSE. Thanks in advance for any answers, Andy.
