[QUOTE="batty, post: 6439, member: 66"] Hello superwol I had a problem on a job that i was called out to. The owner a retired architect said he was gettting a shock of the shower door and other metal parts in a shower room. I tested the metal on the shower door down to earth there was 220 volts. After a lot of hunting around i found an unused socket under the shower and as the sealant had gone on the shower water was tracking down the wall and making the showert cubicle live. The house was protected by a voltage operated trip, not the most reliable protectors. As the shower room was originally a bedroom the socket had not been removed when the room was converted. Unbelievable what some people will do. I don't no if this might be of help for finding your problem. Batty [/QUOTE]
