Was changing a socket in the kitchen tonight as the plug had become hard to insert for some reason. The consumer unit in the garage had two trip switches marked sockets so tried one and tested the kettle and toaster. Neither worked so thought it was safe to proceed. Was just about to slacken the screws holding the cables when I heard the fridge start up. Further investigation revealed that the sockets on the left of the kitchen were dead and the sockets on the right were still live????
I always thought the split was downstairs and upstairs or if three trip switches marked sockets in the consumer unit it was upstairs, downstairs and kitchen.
House is ten years old.
Recently noticed that the lights labelled as up and down were actually down and up.
