Just been on a job fitting a light, noticed customer had 2.5 twin and earth wired into a plug going across the other side of a garage going to another socket with a tumble dryer plugged in 🙄 said to customer shouldn't be like that, to which she responds a electrician did that a few yrs back she said the plug doesn't come out anymore. Seen this many times before neutral pin melts into the socket. Why oh why was it ever wired like this god knows, rewired into the back of the socket where it should have been done originally. Crazy thing is it would have taken him more time to wire the plug than to wire into the surface mount socket. Never run tumble dryers off extension leads guys 🙂 have good weekend all
