Whoever did the wiring in my flat when it was converted from a house around ten years ago, was not too concerned about doing a really conscientious job.
A couple things I've discovered seem plain weird. However, I don't know if it's an example of slap-dash wiring, or something else.
1. The earth carries a small charge, I've checked wherever I can, but still can't find the cause.
2. I have a 290v supply. I imagine that a little above or below 240v is normal, but 290v?
What's going on? It's worrying me. Should I be worried?
Thanks.
