So, Ive taken the master socket apart and you are correct! Thank you very much for your help. I don't need to post photo's. It all makes sense now. Saved me from a catastrophic mistake Cheers!

Thank you for your reply. Will you please check back tomorrow and I'll put photo's on. But it's looking like (from your reply) that I can't do anything about this horrible wire!

I've pretty much given up trying to get a response from Openreach as they never seem to reply and you end up going round and round the garden when you try ringing them! We moved into a property recently and there is conduit on the outside of the house ( which houses the BT cable?) on the...
