Hi
I'm new here and I'm not an electrician but I came across this place when searching for answers to my problems.
I have just moved into a house that was re-wired in 2006.
There is a 2 way outside socket that has broken so I am looking to replace it and want to make sure I get the right replacement.
It is a non-rcd double socket that is wired into the kitchen socket ring. The kitchen sockets have their own mcb in the consumer unit. Is that why the outside plug is a non-rcd type?
------------------------------
There is a sas bath. The bath is protected by it's own mcb in the consumer unit that was tripped when we moved in. However the mcb switch is difficult to trip back up and when I can get the switch to trip back up the coloured window remains on green, it doesn't switch on. Does it just need the mcb replacing or is it more than that?
Thanks (and sorry if this is in the wrong section)
