Socket failed after a month...

Just double check the customer has both switches turned on. May even be worth calling ahead if it could save you a journey.
You could ask them to try turning each switch off then on to save embarrassment.

I think I'd be embarrassed asking that

I have full confidence the customer has tried this as she has plugged things in and tried, only one side works. she is also quite intelligent and far from daft and a post grad phd research student in languages but has very poor dexterity in her hands due to some medical condition so needs me to fit the socket as her husband is not what you would call diy savyy.

Post Grad and PHD don't always equate to common sense Gavin.

Was taught at a very early age never trust a post grad phd research student in languages who has very poor dexterity in her hands to appreciate there happens to be 2 switches on the socket

@Des 56 you cynical person... her husband has also plugged stuff in and tried switches... so for them to both be a bit dim would be surprising....

Oh I'm not sure about that!
Quoted to add sockets for a Doctor and Dentist husband & wife and they where quite shocked that walls would need chopped out, floors lifted etc to run wires to the sockets, thought it was merely a case of putting them on the wall and that's it

Remember this a few years ago especially with the outboard rocker double sockets.

This bad spelling thing I really don't give one if I spell it wrong or get the grammar incorrect I am sure that you get the points that I am making, you must have better things to do than mark my work
