To add a new socket where there wasn't one before, there are two approaches. The first is chasing.

Firstly and most importantly, if you smell burning plastic or see smoke near a socket or the consumer unit, immediately turn off the main switch and call emergency services. A burning smell in electrical systems almost always means that a cable or mechanism is heating up to the point of melting its insulation. The next natural step is a fire. Turning off the main switch cuts the power and allows time for the technician to arrive without further damage. If it trips multiple times without an identifiable cause, there is a more serious problem. Possible causes include several factors. Moisture in switch boxes (common in bathrooms and kitchens with poor sealing), a slow earth leak in an appliance that only manifests at a certain temperature, or old, degraded buried wiring. It could also be the RCD itself ageing, having lost sensitivity and tripping with any tiny disturbance. Night-time service (8 PM to 8 AM) and public holidays incur a legal surcharge on the normal rate. We will inform you of this before confirming the intervention. If the urgency is genuine (risk of fire, electrocution, home without power with elderly people or children), we prioritise without discussion.
