There are tens of thousands of installations that look just like this - and most owners won't know about the tangle behind the board because they won't look at anything but the meters and fuses/breakers.  (Yes, there are still a lot of ceramic fuses still out there.)

Just because there are lots like it doesn't mean it's safe. It's clearly not properly maintained.

 If you can't distinguish Between A mess and Down right  :wtf: Dangerous .

Just because you don't know what you're looking at doesn't mean it's dangerous. It is presently a mess - that's reason enough to investigate. Whether it's dangerous or not needs to be determined by doing more than screaming "OH GOD I SEE COPPER IT MUST BE LIVE!", and "A CABLE TIE, IT WILL KILL US!".

I cannot see for certain what that wire is connected to or whether it's live - and nor can you. It actually looks like that was the feed to the breaker, which would mean it's not live..

Ah, yes, one bad installation condemns an entire country.

Calm down, dear, and get a grip.

It's hard to see much of anything in the five pixels you grabbed. There are no blue wires anywhere in there. E: Okay, there's one blue one but it's not in that bundle and you can barely see it.

You may be a certified electrician, somewhere (UK? What, UKraine (which is UA..)? Because you're not here.), but you're jumping to conclusions. You cannot inspect and test the installation through a glance at a Youtube video.

So where's this 'UK' license for? And why does it qualify you to make judgements on systems you can't properly see and don't know the applicable standards for?
