⚡ ELECTRICAL MYTH: “If it’s working, it must be safe.”
Unfortunately, that’s not quite how electrics work. 👀
A socket can still work. Your lights can still switch on. Your appliances can run as normal, all while there’s a problem hiding behind the scenes.
Loose connections, damaged wiring and ageing electrical installations aren’t always obvious until something goes wrong.
That’s why electrical inspections such as an EICR are so important. They can identify potential problems before they turn into expensive repairs or safety issues.
So remember...
💡 Working doesn’t always mean safe.
If you’re unsure about the condition of your electrics, get them checked by a qualified electrician.
