Hi all.
I wonder if any of you fellow 268 owners can tell me why my power socket in the head (240v) has stopped working? I plugged in a heater which ran fine for about an hour, but then the power was cut. The heater still works when plugged in the socket at the galley.
I can't find any sort of trip switch or fuse other than the switch for both sockets on the main AC panel.
Any help gratefully received!

Did you try resetting the GFI? The little heater I use on my boat will trip the GFI just by turning it on sometimes.

Thanks for replying.
My other 240v socket works still, and the only breaker on the whole boat controls everything to do with shore power. I did turn it off and on just in case it did anything, but the head socket is still dead. The next thing I need to eradicate is the 2pin/3pin adaptor which is in the socket. I don't have anything with two pins which I can plug in, so I'll find another adaptor and see if that's gone pop.
Thanks again.

Just to tie up this loose end, it was the two pin to three pin adaptor. All working again.
