[Help] Electrician in Seaford

[Rugrat]

Hi

I have an RCD that keeps tripping and can't isolate it to anything specific. Anyone out there a sparky that's nearby, or can recommend one?

Cheers!

Sure ... I was hoping for a personal recommendation. I've used Checkatrade before with mixed results

We tend to use Popes or Hughes. Both have done good work for us and immediate family.

A couple of younger guys have also been involved in various jobs around our house during building work and although cheap, their work wasn't necessarily as professional as it might have been – or so we were later informed.

Have you unplugged all the appliances ?

I thought they all had butlers with hand cranked generators.. or is that Friston?

It only goes "occasionally" but too frequently to ignore. I've got a suspicion it's one particular double socket and I'm wondering if taking it off might reveal a lose connection. On the other hand if it's just overloading a particular circuit (Mrs uses that plug for ironing) I won't see anything. In saying that I think it's unlikely as it's only intermittent

An added issue was a different circuit tripped out when we were away in November leaving us with a freezer full of rotten food, so perhaps a full check is the most sensible way

If it's the RCD going it's unlikely to be overload
Is there any pattern to the random tripping
Can you post a pic of the fuse board Inc fuses / MCB s / RCDs ?

Thanks for your help, much appreciated. Saw my neighbour outside and discover his best mate is an electrician so he's going to come over later ... probably the best
