Got back from holidays at 2am Friday morning. Had to go to job in Bray and connect up an Immersion. Then down to Sallynoggin to check out a fuse board.

Got a call out today to Cabinteely. Sockets were tripping out and could not be switched back in. Sometimes the thermostat on fridges can cause the sockets to trip out. Once the fridge defrosts the sockets can be switched back in. Had the customer up and running in a few minutes.
