I am asking this here, as the chap that roughed out my electrics in my new extension is on holiday for the next fortnight.
I am connecting the socket face plates in the kitchen.
It is a radial circuit
Each double socket has either a loop (two wires) coming from the wall, or a single wire (end of the run)
Fine
Easy - i can cope with that!
However, one of the boxes has a loop and a single wire protruding from the wall.
It is definitely not one of the isolator switches for appliances. THey are all accounted for.
Any ideas?
My thought is that the loop may be a free end, and that just in the wall it comes to an end. Probably looked fine until they sheeted everything leaving this mystery.
I am loathe to start tugging stuff to see what happens, though..!
