Need advice on fuseboard change...

[Geoffsd]

Also one shower circuit is playing up. Get power to it fine but as soon as I turn that on RCD trips but get this.. When i switch it back off the power light on the shower and double pole switch is lit! Again any ideas?

So do you mean the shower light and switch light were on before you turned on the shower?

I assume the switch is on - so that is how it should be.
Perhaps the shower has a light to indicate there is power to it - so that would be how it should be.

Power goes to the shower, when I turn it on the RCD at the board trips, then without putting the RCD back on I put the shower off and the ligh indicating power comes back on!

sounds like you have some fault finding to do!

alternatively check the forum for a local electrician to help you out!
