Hi all,
New to here and certainly no DIY expert.
My question is we have what I call a strange power socket in the kitchen that is used to plug our washing machine into. When I say strange it's because the lead from the washing machine is fitted into the socket (ie plug taken off). Not come across this before. A family friend connecting the washing machine a while back but our machine is now playing up and is likely to be needed to be replaced.
Questions - is this a strange socket and is it safe?
Should I change to a conventional power socket?
Hope my post makes sense!
