[QUOTE="janolsen, post: 548090, member: 37252"] My European socket stopped working after somebody likely tried to sabotage it. It's 4 wires plus ground, so it can do in theory 380v. When I measure the blue wire to white or black, I get 130v and blue to brown is just 67v. Is a fuse broken somehow (not easy to tell with modern fuses)? All readings should normally be 234v, which is measured on the fuses. Any idea what can be wrong? Attaching photo of 234v reading, and the wires that yield 67v and 130v. [/QUOTE]
