    Total Power Outage, but nothing has tripped.

    Hi. My next door neighbour's power is totally out. We've checked and nothing has tripped, including the RCD. We've tried turning off all accessible sockets, then switching off the mains and the RCD, then turning them on again and trying things at random, but this hasn't helped. Any ideas?
