Many years ago we had a back boiler (20 years or so ago) - we switched to a combi and are now on our third combi but British gas left our gas fire and back boiler in situ and the back boiler pipes disconnected. The gas fire still worked until recently (i was told by the plumber / gas engineer i asked to service it they should not do that, that the gas fire should have been removed). Was a shock as have had the gas fire serviced a few times.
We had the gas fire and back boiler removed on his advice and the gas line capped off- its a real mess in there (it made a lot of mess getting the old boiler out )
Anyway i want to plaster this up- but note there is some ancient cabling in the space where the back boiler used to be- presumably to power the long decommissioned back boiler?
I have no idea if the cabling is live or not, is my best bet to get an electrician in before i get a plasterer in to check? I have no idea where the other 'end' of the wiring would go?
I imagine it has been like this for a long time and i didnt know as the gas fire was in place.
Thanks
