Found this:

The supplier shall ensure that all his works on a consumer's premises which are not under the control of the consumer (whether forming part of the consumer's installation or not) are—
(a) suitable for their respective purposes;
(b) installed and, so far as is reasonably practicable, maintained so as to prevent danger: and
(c) protected, so far as is reasonably practicable, by a suitable fusible cut-out or automatic switching device as close as reasonably practicable to the supply terminals.

Provided that no such fusible cut-out or automatic switching device shall be inserted in any conductor connected with earth.

Here

Therefore if it's their equipment, they have to maintain it by law.

That would be illegal unless they have a court order and the Police would be present.

I think you would need to go a LONG LONG way before they would take such a drastic measure. They would simply keep trying until they got you home, then disconnect.

Most people don't realise that their Inspectors (not meter readers) actually have legal right of entry to inspect their equipment, and to refuse is potentially an offence!!
