FCU to pond pump

[Dave64]

Something isn't right here and I would advise against connecting anything without first getting someone in to look at it.

I agree. I have three of these FCUs each spurred from a different socket. One to some brick lights, one to decking lights and the third in readiness for the pond pump.
I've simply changed the FCUs to ones with LEDs.. The brick and decking lights work fine, but the pump one didn't seem right.
And given that these electrics are repairs to a conservatory after a fire caused by electrics, I am extra cautious.

 

[Dave64]

Doesn't seem like a mistake any electrician would make, though.

I agree. But they have replaced all the electrics in the conservatory.

Thank you all who replied.
I will contact the contractors and ask them to check the wiring.

Finally found out what was going on here, a bad case of "competent DIYer" not really being all that competent..
It turns out that the two cables into the supply were simply the supply and the loop to the next FCU... the load cable was taped up at the back of the box!
Hats off to all you pros... firstly, for be good at electrics, and secondly, for putting up with muppets like me! And I joke, but I genuinely realise how dangerous electricity can be !!
Thanks for reading, and thank you for a great forum!

Glad you got this sorted and I apologise for being circumspect in my responses, but it did appear as though everything may not have been as it seemed.

 

[Dave64]

I know.. I'm humbled! And safe!

Every day is a learning day for me. I doubt your days are any different.

Indeed, the same electrician also made me realise you shouldn't have two RCDs in the same circuit!!
Respect to the trades.... !
