any ideas guys to what this is ?

It's a strange lookin double socket, which apears to have a hole drilled through it and a piece of cable inserted.

Please don't tell me someone's blagged a neutral from it!

 
nope .... come on guys !!!!!! thought sparkies were a cut above us plumbers . :)

 
I'm not a sparky but it looks like there's no metal insert behind the plate.

 
cold............................................................................. elvis was warmest up to now..

 
someone has bodge converted it for some sort of switch/spur

 
very close but nope .... look deeper . :)
Looks like someone has taken a live off the connection for some reason but for what i would not like to guess.

Looks like a Hi Ho Silver chant is required.

 
whoowhooo...

of course now we all see it !

its a switched live feed for a wall light and works lovely .. :)

why dont manufacturers see this and make 1 more readily available. :)
