Hi again guys - -I'm still having trouble with the electrics. I am ordering a replacement RCCB just so that I can eliminate that from the equation, and noticed another product on the same website: http://www.allaboutelectrics.co.uk/doc/12/vid/2781/RCD_PROTECTED_SOCKET__-_PLASTIC.html Can I...

I've had a look at other similar threads on this subject but can't find anything that describes my problem so here goes... :) I'm not an electrician so may get some of the terms wrong - please just ask for clarification and I'll do my best to explain what I mean... We have an old house...
