In my fusebox I have two 30A fuses- unmarked but I assume ring main circuits. The house is a 1970 3 bedroom ground & top floor. I assume that the power sockets in the house are split 1st floor & ground floor or left of house & right of house - you get the picture ...either way there are two ring mains.
Here's the problem...When I remove one fuse ...all the power sockets in the house are still live. If I reinsert that fuse & remove the other ...they are all still alive. The only way I can disconnect all power sockets is to remove both fuses.
So it appears that some comedian has linked the two ring main cicuits together... does anyone have any idea why this would be done deliberately..? I can't think of any..
Apart from removing every 13A socket and buzzing through the circuits ..anyone got any tips on how I figure out what has gone wrong & where?
