hey im just trying to offer some friendly advice, and then im being told of shared neutrals . my suggestion was to seperate the ring into a cpl of radials in the board, and then i would of disconnected both ends of a leg in 2 accessible sockets splitting the ring not ideal but still as safe in my opinion but with the added bonus at some point the customer will discover sockets not working and will have no choice but to rectify.
OK Adam, Friendly advise is always very welcome but attempts at humiliation quoting complete nonsense isn't.
As Des has just commented access in this property is a real nightmare and getting the customer to agree to me doing anything is a real uphill struggle too. Even poking my head around a door into another bedroom met with hostility. They don't like to think you could be taking something away and don't give you free access to all rooms to carry out tests.
