Electricity not working to cooker and fridge freezer
Anonymous user 23/02/2024 - 3.51 PM
My cooker and fridge freezer are connected to the same socket, and neither of them is working. Is this a simple thing to fix (like changing a fuse in the socket)? Or do I really need to get an electrician out? Thanks for any help. Anna

To answer both questions - 'Is this a simple thing to fix (like changing a fuse in the socket)? Or do I really need to get an electrician out?'
Might be yes or no to the first - but its definitely yes to the second - get an electrician out as sockets don't usually have 'fuses' (although I have seen one that used this) and the likelihood of both plugged in items failing by fuse in the plug is rare.
Just an idea though - plug something else in and see if that comes on? also make sure the consumer unit has all the breakers in the 'on' position - if unsure look up consumer units on you tube and how to operate them.
All the best

I'd recommend getting an electrician to test this specific circuit to ensure it is working safety
