[QUOTE="andrewmacp, post: 499866, member: 32984"] Since moving into our house we've noticed some strange things with the electrics but today I decided I would be useful and try and figure out which breaker on the consumer unit controlled which sockets / lights in the house. My first step was to turn everything off, literally every single switch in the consumer unit including all main switches however we still have 2 sockets which still have power (at opposite corners of the house, one at the front door and the other at the back corner of the back bedroom). What could be the potential causes, could it just be a faulty breaker and if so, should the main switches not then override? The meter light still flashes so the power is definitely going through there. [/QUOTE]
