Hello everyone,
this is my first post here in the forum, I have mostly read as a guest in the past and informed myself about some things. But now I am hoping for feedback because I am really unsure.
At the end of February, we moved into our new end-terrace house near Singen (Htw) and are largely satisfied. However, the electrical installation worries me:
In our electrical box, we have three fuses, of which I had to replace one from time to time (there were two 10 A fuses which were replaced by 16 A, and one 16 A fuse). This weekend, for the first time, a 16 A fuse "blew," so nothing worked at all... unfortunately, I don’t know when that happened, as we only noticed it in the morning while showering because there was no hot water since the heat pump also had no power.
I then looked into the distribution box and opened the cover behind the fuses. You can see the result in the attachment.
What do you think? Does it often look like this or is this already botched work? Unfortunately, I don’t know anything about electricity and the local electrician just says that all the measurements are good, everything else is optics… is he right?
Thanks in advance for your feedback, I hope you can help me a little.
Best regards, SimKN
