>>1535015>i am renting for the first time and i have not seen it look like this before.It is NOT up to NEC (national electrical code) standards which is what insurance companies typically require before insuring a location. Chance are it also does not meet current municipal code requirements. However, if you do something to piss your landlord off, he will refuse to renew your lease. Or find some way to kick you out.
What you should do is NOT have anything connected in your room/apartment that uses electricity and that includes a clock. Verify that the meter disc is not moving. If it is moving, maybe someone else has tapped into your wiring and is bumming free electricity that you have to pay for since it appears on your meter reading.
