Default Re: I’m an idiot!

I can remember helping to remove an internal partition wall.
There was a socket strip on it that clearly looked like a retrofit.
I lifted a ceiling tile and sure enough there was three wires in the box.
The wire I wanted to remove was on its own with the other two on the other side of the block. I took the short cut of undoing the screws and pulling it out.
I was informed with a bang that the spur was something else and that there was another terminal block hidden under a flap of itchy rock wool.
