Have had a call from a regular customer about their RCD TRIPPING.
Strange thing is it has tripped every Monday between 6-6:30 am for the last month.
The property has recently had new kitchen appliances (all high end Neff)
Has also had the meter changed to a smart meter.
My initial thought...
Hi, Could you please give me some advice - I have the veritas 8 alarm with keypad and today I had to turn the mains off to do some diy work. When I turned it off within 2 minutes the alarm started beeping and the alarm went off inside and outside the house. I tried to reset it but it wasn’t...
I know its the wrong forum but does anyone know about intruder alarms, i'm replacing my old knackered panel with a new version but different terminations.

A block of flats has a set of outdoor security lights each switched on by a separate PIR sensor switch.
The lights are 500w incandescent and the PIRs rated at 1000w or more. Different makes of PIR have been tried but after a few months they mostly fail by remaining turned on. Any thoughts on...
I have recently moved into a new house that has a Galaxy 2-20 system which the previous owners had on an ADT contract. Following a number of telephone line outages it needed an engineers reset but ADT will not give me the code and wanted £180 to come and reset it. Alternatively I can sign up...
Hi Guys,
Hopefully a quick question.......Breakers are marked by the manufacture symbol if they can be reset / reused or thrown away after a fault current. Where in BGB or OSG can I find the symbols? I've been looking. I'm sure they are in there somewhere. Thanks
I got a Fluke 6500 PAT tester off ebay but the access code is no longer set at default (9999).
I suspect the previous owner changed the code, I've contacted him but he claims to have no knowledge of the access code.
Without going to Fluke and paying loads of money, is there any other way of...

Hi All. I was called out today to a tripped RCD in a domestic split board that not would reset unless the main switch was off. All mcbs off, all phase conductors removed in case of stuck mcb but still no rcd reset unless main swith was off. Any ideas, householder was not prepared for more...
I have been out to a faulty immersion and have found that there is current through the thermostat. but no current after the next component between the two white wires. what is this and what does it do? and is it bypassable , repairable without having to change the whole element.

Ok, so I'll put in a little background.
On nearly all the sites I look after, the overloads for just about all the smaller >75Kw motors are in a main panel in each sites main switch room. Not a problem until something trips out, it's usually operator error, overloading conveyors etc...

Was asked to look at this job today where the lights on a 6a mcb wouldn't reset. I turned up watched the the person onsite reset the mcb where it instantly reset with a bang and arcing coming from it. I did it again, same thing happened. So i turned all the light switches off and reset the mcb...
Did a small PAT test on a shop fitting site the other day.
Was happily testing 110v appliances and running Insulation @ 500vdc and a touch current test (the tester was connected to a 110v supply).
I came across 2 items that simply forced the tester to 'reboot' though - a Router (1200W) and a...
