    I have a condenser tumble dryer and turned it off mid cycle last nigh. When I went to plug it out the plug felt warm. Is this normal? I usually let it run the full cycle and get to it soon after so have never felt the plug before. Do I need to get an electrician out. The tumble dryer is only a year old

    You are correct.
    Not normal!
    Fire hazard.
    Unplug immediately.
    At a minimum this will need the socket and plug replaced.
