Moved into new house in August
Its a 90s build so most of the house is red/black wiring.
In our living room and dining room there are wires poking out of the walls where previous tenants have removed wall light fittings and switches on the wall that coincide with these wires.
In our hallway near the kitchen door is a random wire poking out of a standard single backbox about head height, it has been covered up with a brush plate, the wires have been terminated into a choccy block and taped up, the earth is still wired to the metal backbox.
Wire colours are red yellow and blue.
There are 2 switches in the hallway, one for an outside light near the front door, and a second 2gang that controls hallway lights upstairs and down, the wire in the wall has no current when tested with multimeter whether hallway lights are on or off.
There is an alarm keypad in our downstairs toilet so its not an alarm either.
Any ideas ?
