  • Yeah it's bizarre. Ground floor and loft work (though I found that the loft sockets are actually marked as 'Water Heater' on the consumer board), along wiht everything else in the house.

    It's a modern board, so MCBs rather than fuses. I've now re-attached the old socket in case there was a fault but still no dice. I think it's time amateur hour came to an end and I called a pro.

  • Surely the ground floor and loft work on separate rings.

    Pop that single socket off again (with the mains isolated on the MCB) and check that the incoming and outgoing cables are securely screwed in.

  • Yep. I think it's more bizarre because I've triple checked the connections, and can't see anything wrong, with both the original socket and my new one.
