What point can this have?

In the ceiling, just above the turning blades of the fan, we have an electrical outlet.

It's reachable by ladder when the fan's stopped but why is it there? What appliance do Canadians operate on a dangling cable?

  2. It must be for the hoover. Then the wire can't get under your feet...:)

  3. we have one like this in our office, to connect the hover/vacum, easier to navigate around the room. i think the fan is the new addition.

  4. You could plug in a Brador light sign and gaze up at it with the lights out.

  5. And the fan off. It's not soon going to be warm enough for that!

  6. The problem with the hoover idea is that there's a central vac. It could be that the central vac was added recently but, still, the ceiling is 15' high - that's a long reach to plug in the cord.
