Went to house to day to look at putting a new board in.....
Quick look about noticed that every socket was run from a jb screwed to the skirting board then run up to patress's in capping with a couple of grey 2.5 t&e clips......defo a DIY job in here.
Looked and there was a 17th board in place asked my question why he wants a new one.....he said because a breaker dosnt work. I tried it and it takes out both sides of the Rcds.......took the lid off explored the rats nest and the nuetral is in the correct bar....In the breaker causing the fault is a 6mm cable, this must feed everything in the kitchen as the whole kitchen is now dead with this breaker not being able to operate...lights & appliances, it is a extension the kitchen so my initial though was the 6mm to a submain but there is nothing in site....i have arranged to call in to fault find tomorrow afternoon, anyone had this before? Or could suggest a fault I should be looking for? My plan was to megger the 6mm to see if any low meg and just work from there.
Cheers
