Socket has stopped working. Replaced fuse and socket. Still doesn’t work. Tested cable going to the shaver socket but nothing coming in. What could this be? Or what would you do to fault find?

I heard them talking about a spur, thought they were on about a cable. Makes sense now

Yes. Have t touched anything. Just took main panel cover off to photograph

Ok fab, thanks. Sorry but how to I check if control panel is giving out 13.8v? I would contact the company that fitted the alarm to replace battery, but going by what you have said they don’t seem to know themselves

Thank you. I will take a visit to toolstation tomorrow. When Iv googled it says there’s two types of batteries. One for the panels memory and clock. The other for entire alarm and outside siren. Reason I thought battery was dead - when electric cuts out the alarm bell would sound.

My fault I saw that battery and presumed it was that

Oh right

How comes? That’s the battery that came with the alarm in the photo. Or do you mean the battery on eBay?

My house alarm battery needs replacing. Says risco group and eurosec when I open alarm up. Where can I find the right battery? Can’t see anything on their website.

Thank you all for input. Put it back how it was with the earth in. Working fine

So if it’s not ideal. What can you do to make it better?

No fcu nearby. And yes only that socket stopped.

Thanks doubled it like you said. Held

Yes works now thanks

Just because there was a fault with the socket. Just wasn’t sure if it was ok.

Hi all, One of my kitchen sockets stopped working. I checked it with a socket tester and it showed a “live/earth reverse” fault. I pulled the socket face off and noticed that one of the earths had popped out – the side that had 2 earth cables. This is what I have: 4 live brown wires into one...

No room within the base so pushed them in the ceiling

used the wago to clip in the cables so I can connect a flex cable to the led light

So Iv changed the rose light to led. All went well. However, Iv been informed that I should put the wago connectors in a junction box before putting back in ceiling. Is that correct?

Thanks. So if they weren’t connected to the rose and just all hanging loose how would you identify which one is which?
