Economy 7 heaters stopped working
Hi,
I've just bought and moved into a Victorian flat. I'm pretty new to all this so if I don't make sense bear with me... We have 3 storage heaters attached to the Economy 7 consumer unit (I think on seperate spurs). The other week all 3 stopped working. I have used a power detector and see that there is no power going to either of the sockets during the off peak period. The immersion water heater, I believe also connected to the E7 CU, seems to be working fine. I've checked the fuses in the consumer unit, and the main off peak fuse and all seem OK. I want to try everything possible before calling out an electrician, as I'd like to learn as much as I can myself. What are the next steps for investigation that you guys would take? A different problem also - one of my double wall sockets seems to have packed up. I got a socket tester plug and it shows that there is a "neutral fault". I checked removed and replaced the live neutral and earth wires but no luck. Any ideas? Cheers Dom |
