Would you agree

[Riley]

Went and looked at this set up today.



Left hand double socket is dead, wires all disconnected, I classed as AR would you agree as I'm now doubting myself

 

[ShaunCorbs]

Yes would say the same right still connected ?

 

[Riley]

Furthest right socket is the only one that works

Furthest right socket is the only one that works

Yea socket shagged as well if just one side works

 

[Riley]

Yep. I hate ones like this where they say it was never mentioned in previous gas safetys

 

[quality]

can't see picture

 

[Pssst]

Why is it AR?

 

[Riley]

Because it's directly above the burners and as there is the potential for the socket to be reconnected it can't be deemed compliant surely? If it's blanked off then that's different

Why is it AR?

socket could melt
