odd rewire with a red cable ...............

 

[westward10]

I find it difficult to believe an electrician fitted that rcbo.

I got an electrician in to do that part for me, he brought the rcbo with him

Get him to diagnose it.

At the very least you have put your sockets on a 50amp RCBO(It should be a 32amp).
You obviously don't know what your doing so get a proper electrician in to test the circuits,change the breaker and fix your fault

good name hell bells for you post ,trying change it to oh f88K.

Where did the electrician tie his horse up?

Where did the electrician tie his horse up?

probably around the corner in a field .

 

[ColeCassidy]

I’m calling bull*hit that a spark fitted that

 

[telectrix]

what's the romanian for bull*hit?

 

[Toneyz]

guess N in wrong N bar. where in Wales?

Or neutral to earth fault.

It may be my eyes, but i cant see no neutral cables going into the RCBO??

Precisely and this has been noted previously, I suspect this is why the OP has disappeared and solved the problem.

As the Lewden RCBO terminals do not look like the same format as any I have seen in the last few years, but match the others in the CU, I'd say that it is a load of -------s that anyone brought that with them to do the job.
No electrician turned up to this job at all, whether the OP did it or not.

 

[Gavin John Hyde]

if the op does come back on i think its wise to not give him any advice other than get his wallet out and pay a decent spark to put it right...

 

[mnbs 4x4]

neutral and earth crossed at the socket

 

[Gareth Brookes]

That's a 50A RCBO! Firstly it needs to be on a 32A, secondly there's a fault somewhere between your Neautral and Earth.

Omg is he for real one thinks this guy has no clue what he is doing

 

[Gareth Brookes]

I bet the neutral from the rcbo is in the neutral bar along with the neutral in the circuit so as soon as a load is plugged in there is no return path through the rcbo
