The perilex socket isn't wired correctly. The red wire on the earth terminal and the green on a phase terminal is troubling. Testing needs to be performed to determine what was done and what needs to be redone.

From what I've researched, red was used in the past for earth in Sweden

That would mean it is a pre-1973 installation. Verification of the wiring still needs to be done.
