Good to take some videos which can show the issue clearly If it is after the TNB meter then you would need to engage an electrician contractor to come over for troubleshooting, Until issue is rectified, please be extra careful with your electric usage. If can you might want to access your distribution box and press the "Test" button at the RCCB to ensure it is working

Call Tenaga on 15454 and make a complaint. They will attend quite promptly to it as the incoming fuse belongs to them.

Always remember to take video if u measure the voltage reading, got evidence easy to complain.
i) single phase supply with nominal voltage of 230V, range +10%, -6%; (216.2v - 253v) ii. Three phase supply with nominal voltage of 400V, range +10%, -6%; (376 - 440v) iii. Permitted frequency is 50Hz + 1%;

Wiring loose.. those light/dimmer wire they give ciplak cable not much thicker than hair one so it is not uncommon for them to break loose If I were you I'd buy a dozen of the clamp-type wago connector like these https://my.element14.com/wago/221-412-ve00-...2pos/dp/2536249make life easy no need to struggle due to the thin wires falling out from screw terminal block
