The earthing isn't the actual issue for contacting the authority. It's the age and suitability of the incoming equipment. Upgrade of any earthing facility, if occurring, is a bonus.You are correct, the incoming equipment is the owned and is the responsibility of the DNO but as I said the earthing is not their responsibility and has not been for some time, it is now being pushed as the responsibility of the consumer. Unless there is a real and present danger, they will not consider it a priority to attend site to look at ‘no earth’. You will find that they are doing the same for lateral mains which they are now pushing to the free holders.
A talk on site is the way to explore possibilities.
