I was commenting on Rick's story regarding a domestic arrangement. I 
would not assume any standards applicable to a power retailer would 
apply in such cases.

In the event of a quake, it seems to me prudent to cut HT and mains, but 
then generator sets automatically starting up would tend to negate the 
action.

I occasionally hear about events involving live wires on the ground 
following accidents and fires. It's bad news, especially for the poor 
kid that picks one up.
