Called to a customer who was complaining of the socket MCB tripping randomly through the night and morning.

I go into the utility room to where the consumer unit is, and notice in the dog bed the below:



Customer had not noticed for some reason :oops:

Took a look next to the dog bed. The dogs had chewed through the cable for the tumble drier which was still plugged in. Notice the black chars on the skirting!




Dogs are fine :roll:
 
My dog Smut did that years ago (circa 1991)! He too survived!
