110v transformer blowing trip

[Stroppy]

... but then you'd trip over it getting to the RCD instead!

 

[telectrix]

it's quite possible that it's tripping a MCB due to initial surge, and that there's nothing wrong with it. mine will pop a 32A type B, 2 times out of 5.

Yep, its still blowing RCD trip. Will try opening the top cover and have a look and will have a go about testing it. I appreciate all serious advice given on the thread but those who are leaving pathetic comments I cant see the point. You must have one miserable life if you have nothing better that to post up garbage on the net....lol

Uhum and you did get a good reply on post 2, so although we are having a laugh, the help was there long before the jokes started, there is a thanks button too if you get help you asked for, see post below????????????????

before you bin it, do a IR test ( Land N shorted and test to E ). is it tripping RCD or MCB?

 

[GLENNSPARK]

didn't do joan of arc much good. she ended up more well done than my lady's cooking.

 

[bigbaddave]

a Residual Current Device is designed to find fault, if it keeps tripping, I assume their is a fault.
its not "blowing the trip for some reason" its doing what it was designed to do and preventing electric shock.

how inconvenient!

Assume there's a fault... Only assume??

There's a conspiracy theory that they burnt someone else though Tel. Apparently the crowd were kept well away from the fire which was supposed to be unusual in those days and rumour has it that she turned up somewhere 6 months after the burning.
It's probably all bolox like all other conspiracy theories though

i know...lol.....mad innit....lol...

 

[MDJ]

you mean like Elvis works in a chipshop trev?

 

[trev]

That was a Kirsty McColl song Mike not a conspiracy theory

 

[ayjay]
