There's an electrical fault in our home in regards to heating electrical appliances like (i.e. 2 hotplate stove, microwave, kettle) that get damaged when plugged in 3 specific wall sockets on the kitchen walls. This normally happens 4 months after the purchasing of the appliances.The 4th wall socket in the kitchen isn't giving any problems as it is used to plug the refrigerator only. All other appliances utilized in other rooms in the house don't get damaged as well as the heater which is frequently plugged in the lounge area.
