Fire of an electric meter on a support: who is to blame, who pays for the replacement

The question is answered: Alexander Myasoedov
Hello! Questions number:

1 - how much do you have two counters?

2 - why on a support 40A, and in the house there are only 16?

Ask electricians how a 40A machine could have worked before a 16A machine?

Most likely the machine on the support had bad contact and it was warming up, so the counter? did I understand correctly? With poor contact, this often happens, especially since your branch is most likely made with a SIP wire. It is aluminum. Aluminum metal is fluid - the contact is weakened.

The second option - somewhere on the lead-in wire from the support to the house, the insulation was damaged and shorted from the water. But this is unlikely, then the machine should have worked up to the counter on the support.

In principle, there are no more options, and you write correctly, which would knock you out if you included something powerful. And in order to "light up" the meter, you had to load sooooo good. Well, many times more than your 16A machine will allow.

Here, even the youngest electrician, who does not cover his ass, will say that the fault of the networkers, the management company or who did you call there to fix the malfunction? It is my fault that I tightened it poorly, did not make an audit, did not inspect the equipment, etc.

To understand who should pay for its replacement, specify on whose balance sheet this "control meter" of yours, plus let them provide an agreement, technical specification or any other document where it is clearly spelled out. Otherwise, you can try to resort to legal proceedings.
