Hello,
I have an extension plug fitted in my conservatory, as the photo shows. It was fitted a few years ago by an electrician, and it is wired to my mains network. Recently, I had some work done in my garden, for which the workers connected heavy equipment to this plug and, shortly afterwards, the plug stopped working. The landscapers in my garden were not surprised: they told me that, as this was a spur and not a direct plug, the demand from their equipment was probably too high for it. We plugged their equipment into another socket on my premises and, from then on, it worked fine.
However, I still have no electricity from this extension plug in my conservatory. What can I do to make it work back again? Is this a job I can do myself, or do I need to call a qualified electrician?
