When we had a mandatory house wiring check, the live cable to the new(ish) central heating was not secured correctly. That had caused the contact and wiring to tarnish and start to generate heat. Also the neutral wire connection had broken the mains loop around all the sockets. Plumbers doing electricians' work.
