they looked quite normal lol one of the only places i didnt want a brew ,your not wrong duram its one of the wiardest situations ive even been in should have said you need a plumber

 

[moondog]

Should of offered them a load of 'special' buckets to catch the leaks!

 

[DurhamSparky]

i would have called them paranoid idiots!! was the bill a estimate by any chance!!?? lol

 

[telectrix]

now, hre's an interesrting point. suppose an installation without RCD protection. high earth leakage. over time, would this leakage not give rise to increased bills.? even 30mA 24/7 for a few years couls addup to a few squid.

bill was less than my house !! dont think they had been there long they lived in a small cottage and this one was a larger house so i think that may have been the reason 4 lamps cost less than 20 to run lol ... dont you dare tell them that tel lol

Got to admit leaking electricity, that tickled me.

20 odd years ago a friend asked me to have a look at his mums immersion heater, he’d had a look at the wires in the terminal box and “couldn’t see any electricity going through them!” We were in the pub, I nearly choked on my beer.
