Hi all Low Yat forumers,
I've got a electrical cable problem at home. After some diagnostic, i've concluded it's probably a short circuit with the "Live" and "Neutral" cable. I dont want to pull another cable from the socket to the Main DB. How to fix this issue? Tap from from another socket? = Not possible as I need lots of power for this socket (1hp aircond and 5 desktop pc)
Can I pump liquid cement into the piping and hope when it hardens it will form as an insulation for the cables laying inside?
Do suggest. Thanks.

Should find the cause of it.
Electricity stuff, don't play play.
It is dangerous.
Somemore 5 desktop + air-cond cost is way expensive than finding the root cause of it.
You are putting 5 desktop at risk.
How come you conclude short circuit between L&N?
If there is short-circuit, your ELCB will trip straight away once you open the ELCB switch.
A normal socket/single 13A supply supply, may not enough for 5 desktop + 1 hp aircond.
1 hp = 0.75KW = 3-4 A
A desktop normal power supply = 400W x 5 = 2KW, = near 9 A
Total = 13-14 A.
This is dangerous, you are pushing the top limit of the cable/socket rated ability
