Do the 5vSTB test I asked about further up the topic.
Don't forget the paperclip to short out the power switch to rule out the switch. |
I'd like to do that, tbh but the truth is I don't feel confident doing that. I work from home and I don't have a "backup" system, if my PC dies, I'm a big trouble.

I would still check if the socket is properly grounded.

And how can you do that? _________________ A! Elbereth Gilthoniel!

pablo_supertux,
The grounding test requires a test plug to do safely.
It's something I keep intending to add to my toolkit but being in the trade, (retired) as it were, I won't encourage you to do what I would do. _________________ Regards,
