What is this
Why is this box open? Could you report it to Openreach if an engineer isn�t onsite please?
Does look like a DP in that clip joint, judging by those 2 or 5 pair cables that are probably heading to each of the houses.

|
because i wanted to have a look where my line goes because my line [censored]
|
|

So, you are saying you opened the chamber ... is that correct?

yes my friend did

Your friend are NOT allow to open it. You could faced serious trouble and legal action by Openreach if your friend did open it.

Whoops! Agreed with adslmax on this one, I'm afraid!

And given the number of thefts of copper wiring, if seen lifting a chamber a good chance of it being reported and police arriving

Words fail me. Interferon with BT plant, causing a possible hazard, ... I could go on.
Would you be happy with people turning up and opening your garage - just to see what was there?
And in one post you claim "a friend did" and in another "I did not know" - an imaginary friend maybe? one who shares your name and shoes?

So the thing is, and here�s the thing ....
You have illegally opened a footway box, what you were hoping to achieve is beyond me, since you don�t even recognise what it it is you have exposed ... shut the lid, carefully, and hope none of your neighbours have sobbed you in. Eejit.

|
|
can i just ask how dirty is ok for it to get lid was not propley anyways because dirt round edge
|
|
|
Because these joints are designed to �live� underground. Dirt on the outside is no reflection on the interior.
|
|
|
|
is it easy for them replace the line ?
|
|
|
Which bit ?
There needs to be a plausible reason. What is actually wrong with your service ?
|
|
|
are my stats ok
dsl stats
|
|
|
What are they in �old money� ?
You�ve still not said what is actually the problem you are experiencing ?
What equipment are you using, and what�s the set up, what�s connected where ?
|
|
|
|
Stats are fine for a 40/10 service. Uptime 24 days. No problems.

In that photo there's a fat juicy worm sat on the kit (mid-right) and loads of other muck internally...eeeeuuurrrghhhhh  Do the BT/Openreach bods ever give the u/g DPs a quick clean once in a while?

Underground plant needs a combination of clue of what you are looking at and a legal requirement to test for gas. Probably best left alone.
|
|
|
If the DP is waterproof whats the point?

It may or may not be a DP ( no way can you tell by that pic ) It is a UG ( Under Ground ) joint in fact a large ped cap UCJ ( Universal Clip Joint )
As to the fool who open the box to take the pic , well he is one sad fool.
Ps looks like the box is a Joint Box 26
