Hello Everyone, Anyone good at solving Electricity Thefts?

Simple.
Disconnect the suspect cable, buy a neon lamp transformer, connect the HV side of transformer the the cable in question, power up and see what happens next

I was going to say put the cable across two of the phases, whatever was tapped into it wont be for much longer.
Also should have switched the other isolators off and seen what stays on or even took the meter readings of the other flats.

I don't think he can get access to the other flats to read the meters.

The video from 7.40 onwards shows a couple of MEM? sw fuse isolators and a couple of meters, everything is probably grouped together at the intake and the flats fed from there in 16 or 10 t&e (I wonder how the bondings done)

I must watch the video at some point!

If I thought there might be a fault on a cable that I owned that was using electricity when everything that is supplied was isolated.
I might be tempted to try a series of insulation tests at 1kv or even 5kv just to be sure

Interesting suggestion. Are you local to Bourenmouth?
