Call to a customer whose sockets were making the RCD trip. Located issue in the utility room area. Although back boxes showed signs of moisture had been present all seemed ok. But after getting tester out round ring was ok but this small spur wire failed IR test and after removal and replacement found the damage to the cable. Must been like that for around 10years. Circuit rechecked and power restored.

Call out to sort loss power. Found soaked clothes down back washing machines covering a socket that was missing a screw so was loose also. Raised socket so that problem doesn’t happen with clothes. Drains need a good clear out as can see keep blocking.
