Hi Everyone,
Sorry if I am being stupid with this ( its late and i'm very tired)
Still learning and have had a call from a customer that their main switch (not mcbs) keeps tripping everytime they plug in a hoover, heavy duty drill, microwave, kettle into the socket circuit (all the house sockets are on the same ring circuit - 32a type b 2.5mm cable). The socket circuit works with all other items plugged in ( tv, fridge etc)
It also trips when they turn on the shower which is on its own circuit (45a type b) 10mm cable.
I am presuming this is an overload problem?? without seeing it yet thats all the info i have.
Can anyone help me with this? Has anyone come across this before? Could it be something else?
I hope you can help
