Water got into it. It kept popping and had smoke pop out of it each time (one time fire). It had melted a bunch of plastic and despite being dry it would keep smoking, so thatâs why we got an electrician. Itâs no longer smoking so I guess it wasnât completely dry last I checked. I did also clean the socket myself as it had a bunch of grease(?) and weird gunk inside it, so maybe that helped?
Hahaha, probably not. Itâs a power outlet next to the sink and it has huge gaps where it meets the tile wall. Donât know how this is the first time I got water in it, but itâll probably happen again at some point.

Crikey, is that even legal in this day and age? Iâm guessing your REA/landlord arenât very big on codes, based on what you were saying yesterday but come on - that seems like every type of hazard I can think of. Fire hazard, electrocution hazard, probably a pest hazard, since thereâs a gap between the wall and itâs right next to the sink thatâs probably also a mild hazard
