    1. probablly best to turn off the main switch - NOT just the MCB trip - depending on how its wired its possible to get a shock off the neutral wires - and trip the circuit anyway , if any wires a lose and happen to touch earth 3. What about other sockets on the ground or 1st floor - then so...

    do you feel confidant that you can remove the front of the sockets/fused connection and pull out slightly and look at the wiring inside if so then as peter01 says i would look at 2 sockets - the end one on the right - just to see if it only has 1 cable going into it and no others coming out...

    well , really should not be as if it is on a RING main then even if they have wired the ring split with the fuse, then if fuse blows - it wont stop the other sockets as they should be feed from the other side of the RING BUT its worth changing the fuse and if that does fix it - then the wiring...
