  1. Even cheap alarms can send out a notice when the power is cut off and comes back. The thing is the reactivation. Even if you trust your neighbors and they're still pretty agile, they're not necessarily going to get there shortly after the power went out to reset it. Not to mention that it could go out several times during a storm. Besides all the other issues, in some parts of France security is paramount. So, overall, it's absolutely incredible that these 'normal' disjoncteurs are the accepted norm, when the automatically resetting type would resolve all of these issues.
  2. Reviving this after nearly a decade ... The typical disjoncteur general is an absolute nuisance that exposes the property to all sorts of damages and security risks - any automatic processes like plant watering, alarm system, security cameras are rendered useless. But, now there are disjoncteurs that rearm automatically. Google Schneider 18689 for example. There are also other manufacturers. The issue is that the current one is sealed by the EDF. I spoke to EDF about this and they offered to send someone out to unseal it, so I can have an electrician install an automatically rearming one. Unfortunately they didn't follow through with sending someone to unseal the current one, so I will have to talk to them again. This is obviously a very big problem, that needs urgent addressing. The voisons are not necessarily the solution, particularly when they're old and can barely deal with their own properties.
