[QUOTE="JodieS, post: 552217, member: 37689"] He says he "put the link between line and cpc" and there was no continuity. He did disconnect the supply and say something about shorting out one end - he connected two clips to the isolator switch - this was the point where he lost me 😄 but yes, I think he tested it. A new theory has emerged... the tenants in the flat next to mine moved out a couple of weeks ago and they've just told me they switched everything off in their CUs when they left. This was around the time I first noticed my heating hadn't come on. They always complained about high electricity bills, so now we're wondering if somehow my off-peak supply is routed through theirs. Unlikely but possible! Their landlord is going to switch everything back on at some point in the next couple of days and we'll test the theory... [/QUOTE]
