That made me chuckle - I'm always extra careful if I have to open a socket, plug a light into it, switch it on and then use the breaker to switch it off, even then I'll check with my AVO before undoing the faceplate and again once I've got the faceplate off. After that you can guarantee that as soon as I touch the earth lead the earth leak breaker will trip out the entire consumer unit! Fortunately we have 3 phase so 3 consumer units, so it only takes out whatever is on that particular CU rather than the whole house! I hate electrickery with a purple passion, ever since I got bitten by a fully charged heavy duty Land Rover battery (still have the scars on my wrist, and it was 1974/5 it happened!!)
 
I don't trust anything I can't see, smell or touch...
 
Whoops my bad,
Not 19th, still 18th, there was just an amendment in Feb, not a full edition.

Well it is 2020 so it must be time for a 20th edition,
electrickery changes how it behaves at a fast pace it would seem.
