[QUOTE="Andy™, post: 33374, member: 2012"] reminds me of something i found a while back. rather than fit a plug to the cable... they stripped the end of the cable so there was about 25mm of copper, put over pins of socket doubler, then plugged in (its a bodge, remember. so no earth connected!) after i removed the socket doubler, the flex was still jammed in socket and the best part... 3 sockets in the same room had the same damage... it burned out at one.... so they went to another..... then another.... IIRC, this extension fed a F/F and a W/M in utility room [IMG]http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b314/andrew2022/Image018.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b314/andrew2022/Image020.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
