Got an electician in today to do some additional sockets and he has informed me that some of the original sockets are not earthed. He siad where metal boxes are used the socket should be earthed to the box but they aren't. Haven't looked at them all but I'm presuming its the same with all of them. I've only recently got the house and its a new build with certificate and everyting. Is it compulsary that they should be earthed?
