I note no-one so far has said words to the effect: don't meddle with
wiring
unless you are a licenced electrician, not only for your sake but for
future
residents. But, one wonders, would a licenced electrcian necessarily have
found this one?

People did say that, just not as politely. And yes, a competent sparky

checks for jolts first, even after pulling the fuse.

There's a reason why those people who don't know what they're doing use
properly qualified people. Then there's the dead ones. They're the idiots.
Sadly, in QLD, the standards for electricians is (or was) so low, that many
problems occurred.

Of course a proper electrician would have found the problem. Electricians do
not make the sorts of mistakes that idiots, who should not play with
electrical appliances, make.
