Csn you get electrocuted by a loose light socket?

I rent.

Light blew, got a new one , but when i went to change it , the light socket literally just twisted around.
And when i gave it a push (as you do with bayonet bases) it just slid up into the light batten.

I mean, i could turn off the circuit, but i looked in the breaker box....amd this place is so old all the lables have faded and i cant tell which is which.

And our landlord is shit at commiting to fixing stuff

I admittedly know little to nothing about this stuff but when it comes to electricity and possible electrocution/fire hazards, I’d want someone who does know about this stuff to look at it.

@OogieBoogie Yeah, I know how that rent raising game goes. I’m just leery because it has to do with electricity. You’d think El Cheapo would rather not risk her house burning down. Unless there’s insurance money involved.

Think I might be watching too much crime TV. 🤔
😂@OlderSometimesWiser oh the way house prices have skyrocketed here .... I'm sure she'd love the place to burn down ....no doubt about it 🙄
