Q: Where is your most strangely positioned electric socket?
I have one directly above my kitchen sink. The placement baffles me.
Any better than that?
Not in our place, but I have seen one straight under the shower head in the toiletshowerkitchenroom.
dom87:
yet my shower has a socket there too and my washing machine was under the shower too. the socket was to put in the plug of the washing machine under the shower... true story
i have one on my ceiling in the kitchen. now i would understand if it was there to plug a light or something in, but right next to it is a huge light...
3 inches to the right of our shower head!
Paulberger:
you should aim your shower head away from it... i don't want to read your next post here saying, "what is the traditional chinese medicine cure for electrocution?"
texascowboy:
it is a little above the head so it usually stays dry unless I start singing and dancing in the rain which would be the end of me and the neighbors who can see and hear me!
Paulberger:
you don't ever need to explain to me again here what you do in the shower... that's what private messages are for...
Scandinavian:
"a little bit above the head" famous last words from someone who didn't quite understand humidity and condensation.
I've tried living for a couple of weeks in a place where if you would shower too long, the buildup of steam would short something and blow the fuses. But not a real problem as the owner of that place was very quick to air out, replace fuses and say "now you can shower more"
I have one in the wall near the ceiling line. They created a false ceiling and only the two bottom holes of the socket are showing. Apart from the fact that this socket cannot be used the original placement is a puzzle as well because you would need a stepladder to plug anything in anyway!
