a) The installation of electricity meters is regulated by the ERDF technical specification: ERDF-CPT-M & S-CDC-11006

b) This .pdf indicates

First fault: do not replace the wooden panels or tableautins by self-extinguishing plates.

Second fault: disregard the locations now prohibited for this type of meters and replace cheaply the robust electromechanical meter often installed in these places now prohibited for new meters.

Of course the replacement of the wood support should be imperative and at the expense of the company that wants to impose its new device but also the change of location which ipso facto would sometimes require major work for the site to answer, in terms of security, to standard.Needile to specify that such work is not done in the time frame of 30 minutes granted to subcontractors who are either accomplices or dupes of Enédis. But in the case of companies that are in principle specialized in electricity, they should know the standards of their field of action.

A retired engineer from RTE (EDF), doctor and engineer in applied physics even explains that in case of phase inversion and neutral, as has been seen with incompetent installers, this can lead to disasters. We can add that the unipolar cut-off system inside the Linky can also generate electric arcs and participate in the firing of the wooden boards.

The 2 videos where the linky burned are installed on WOOD !! As by chance !!

Another mystery solved (among others) on this forum... now the neuneus who can not even check information will always think that this is a problem only Linky ... while it is their installation that is canve and they let in a branquignole at home!

In particular, over the years, in loosening "domino" connectors or even
array and in outlets, which can lead to the creation of arcing. With
the increase of the frequencies, circulating in installations not planned for this,
imposed by the CPL, the danger of arches increases due to warming up and
vibrations more powerful than 50 Hz .

WE CAN NOT FIX A LINKY DIRECTLY ON A WOODEN SUPPORT AS IT WAS (would?) Have been made on some videos that circulate on social networks (not that it is not disinformation videos):
