Partial voltage

[bright spark]

Don't know if you've had any of these problems lately.
Had 2 jobs in d last 10 days where heating wasn't working due to incoming voltage being between 110-180 volts. Had a potterton prima fan running but boiler not going to fire, and the other on a remeha gas 210 Eco cycling but not starting. 2nd one was a bit puzzling till I put d test leads on.
sure keeps life interesting.

Was that the whole house? I've had that with dodgy components before, zone valves doing that are sneaky!
