thanks for the reply's everyone...sorry i did'nt properly introduce myself to the forums....I have been a lurker here for quite some time....I;m a fire alarm tech (Edwards), I'm no electrician.....but know what was done here was seriously wrong. the circuit continued on pretty much under the carpet to a plug beside the bed (pic). I'm looking for a new place to live (can you blame me?) only been here for 3 months. the house was only re-wired 6 months ago....scary stuff
thanks
