    Yes , its well overdue an rewire , Though the Cables don't look too bad where they enter the Consumer Unit , You can guarantee that behind Switches & Sockets the insulation on the Cables will be perished , There is no RCD protection to any circuits as well. Time to get the Pros in , then...

    Sometimes they are a tight fit to remove , Just slacken off the Brass nut anticlockwise ,take out the fixing screws and give it a "jiggle" left to right while applying pressure either upwards or sidewards and it should come loose. Lucky

    Tracing a RCBO switchoff problem

    More than likely you have a "borrowed Neutral, In older wiring on a 2 way Circuit , Landing / Hall you`ll find the Landing Light may be fed off the Downstairs Light , via a Link across the 2 way Switch in the Hall , So I effect you have the Feed from the Downstairs Lighting Circuit , and the...
