No Earth Wire In Plug
Hi all, Had a problem with my mini angle grinder that cut out during use. Opened up the plug to take the fuse out and check it in the kettle and was surprised to see there's no earth wire in the cable. Is this normal? P.S Fuse was blown - can't understand why though.- Steevo

No Earth on socket
Hi folks I have recently discovered that a plug socket in my kitchen has no earth connection. The actual earth cable is there and is connected at the socket however when I test for continuity it is open.
