Fridge tripping.

UPDATE

Still haven't been to look, but he has just told me that he put the breaker back on today after leaving it off for a while I presume and it has held all day. Dodgy breaker or dodgy fridge it seems?

The problem has been the higher temp over the last couple of days. Today is cooler and the fridge works.

I bet the condenser coil is blocked and needs a good clean out. When the coils coils get blocked, the compressor will not work efficiently. The motor run times are too long and the compressor overheats, pulls too much current and...........you guys know the rest.

Tell your mate to ring a fridgeman to give it a good service.
