Electricity keeps tripping

If your electrics trip as a result of turning on anything with an element a faulty appliance is the most likely cause, rather than having too low a potencia 

Your boiler is probably faulty and could need repairing/ replacing.

Get someone out to see if it can be repaired.

Heating ellement gone down or a leaking tank and water has shorted it out. Unplug it  and take the bottom cover off. you should see if there is a leak if there is spots of water in the under case. If not change the element it is very easy. 

Thanks for your help..

I will get someone out next time I'm over.

Thanks for your response/help..

I'm not very good with electrics so I will get someone to look at it the next time I'm over.

Thanks again appreciate the help.

DONT REPLACE THE BOILER!!!

I had the same problem recently,changed the boiler, the plug socket, still tripping!

The electrician is scratching his head!

Everything else works from the socket except the new boiler he installed, ran an extension lead to the boiler and it works fine, he’s coming back to look a little deeper, 

I would run an extension lead to the boiler first to eliminate that it is actually the boiler.

Good luck.

Nice 1 for that..

I will try that 1st..

Thanks John 

Plug socket could well be shot and shorting out

Hi Steve

We changed that first, Still tripping out, it’s a strange one this, kettle, toaster, microwave all work fine off the same socket.

Main box is getting looked at next, watch this space!! 

:-)

Interesting, If your kettle, Toster work , The main earth seems not to be connected except through the pipe work of the boiler. Get the electrician to put a megger test on the boiler.
