⚡ Another fault found that had been hiding for years…
During an EICR (Electrical Inspection) visit, we identified an open circuit on all conductors of a socket ring final circuit.
The circuit had been like this for several years and had even been missed during the previous inspection around 5 years ago.
After carrying out systematic testing and fault-finding, we traced the fault to beneath the landing floorboards.
Once exposed, we found the original cables had simply been twisted together and taped causing a poor connection which then failed.
This is exactly why proper testing and inspecting matters. A circuit can appear to work normally while still containing serious defects that aren’t obvious to the homeowner.
🔎 Fault-finding isn’t just about finding what’s stopped working — it’s about finding what’s wrong before it becomes a problem.
