Hi Jon,
 
    Do you also have a metal pipe cold water supply? Or  is it plastic?

I am unsure what you mean  here.


I presume that you pay for your electricity? There  will be thick power 
cables entering your flat and there will be a main power  fuse, a meter for 
recording how much electricity you use and a fuse  box / board or circuit trip board 
with switches. Connected to  this should be a thick earth wire, usually yellow 
and green or plain  green.
