If there is an abrupt rise in the use of electrical current or leakage, your RCD will react. This could be due to frozen contents or fridge thawing.
An appliance with poor connections can sometimes cause an electrical surge. If this happens, the RCD may trip and will then be reset as it is intended to do. The electricity supply should be restored to normal within a few hours.
Moisture inside electrical boxes and sockets may cause a trip to the RCD. It is important to detect moisture in the socket box as soon as possible. You should inspect exterior electrical socket boxes and outlets for moisture. Signs of moisture include weather-sealed boxes that have become brittle or reset switches that are not working correctly.
Spikes can also result from equipment that is not well maintained, or improperly connected, such as older appliances such as dryers and washers. When there is a correlation in the frequency/time and usage of an appliance and surges, then motors and pumps will most likely be causing the RCD to trip.
Trips are triggered when there is a sudden spike of electricity that can cause injury or damage. These spikes can occur due to lightning strikes, electric faults, power tools and appliances with pumps or motors.
RCD trip could result from a malfunctioning component in your central heat. RCD trips are often caused by the defective part turning on and off repeatedly. This can lead to false alarms. If your home experiences frequent or extended RCD trips, it could cause permanent damage to its electrical equipment.

Ohhhhh! The fuse box tripped again. You were in the middle of the game. It can be frustrating to have your fuse box keep tripping while you are playing. If your fuse box keeps tripping, it could be an indication that you have a faulty wiring or appliance. So… you could just reset it every time it trips. You can also find the root cause of the problem and fix it immediately.
Your fuse box (or, as electricians prefer to call it, your consumer unit) is usually located on the ground-floor if you live in house. If not, it will be under the stairs. Keep the area surrounding your consumer unit clean so that you can quickly access them in an emergency. If you live at the top of a block, your unit will usually be higher than the wall.
A fuse box is vital for the safety of your household. It acts as a gatekeeper between your house and the mains electricity supply.
These currents could be fatally dangerous if a fault or surge occurs, so the fuse box works by detecting any unusual activity and then cutting off the flow of electricity through that circuit if it gets too high. Without circuit breakers and fuse box, electrical fires, shocks and other types of accidents are all too common in modern homes.
When you open your fuse box panel, you’ll be able to see if you have fuses or circuit breakers. Circuit breakers are like a row or switch of levers and switches. Fuses are a bit more modern. They are round and screw into sockets in the same way as little light bulbs.
If you don’t have a label for your circuit breakers, fuses or switches, make sure to mark them according the location of which light sockets and lights they activate when they turn on. You’ll be glad you did if your circuit ever goes out of control.
An electrician should be able to fix any electrical problems in your house. Remember to turn off and unplug everything you need to do so that there is no risk of live current. If you have fuse box problems in Hall Green CV6 7, Longford, Foleshill, Wyken, Upper Stoke, call Gigi Emergency Electrician today! 07782 805852
MCBs or Miniature Circuit Breakers are protective electromagnetic devices that act as a switch in a circuit. When the current passes over the circuit’s limit, they automatically open it. This device can also serve as a standard on/off switch.
MCBs are also known as time delay tripping devices which trip and shut down the system whenever there is an overcurrent flowing for a longer period of time and there is a danger to the entire circuit. In the event of short-circuits these devices can trip and cut off the power supply within 2.5 milliseconds.
In an electrical system ‘Fault’ is the condition which arises due to the malfunctioning of some component or wrong electrical practice. A fault may lead to a very dangerous situation such as explosion & fire if not cleared timely, not only this, the amount of time for which fault remains in the system, it continuously deteriorates the system health causing high energy losses resulting in increased thermal stress upon the system.
Faults can be dangerous to the system and must be fixed as soon as possible. This device is needed to not only clear the fault but also to reduce the opening time to minimize thermal stress.
MCB or Miniature Circuit Breaker is a protection device which offers protection against overload & short circuit. It is composed of a bimetal & a solenoid coil. These trigger the MCB for Overload & Short Circuit. Conforming to IEC 60898-1 MCB can be used for lower ratings starting at 0.5125A.
These security devices not only save your electrical gadgets or appliances, but also protect the wiring throughout the house. An MCB trip is a sign of serious trouble and should be treated immediately.
An average electrical fire, short or short, has a distinct metal or burning copper smell. You may also smell burning rubber mixed with plastic. It is not a laughing matter, as it can indicate that something has been too loaded. You should immediately turn off your main power supply and contact your electrician for assistance. They will inform you of the severity of the problem, and advise you if it is time to call the fire department.
Sometimes, the electrical smell may be caused by a device that you have plugged into and not your electrical system.
It’s not easy to describe how it smells. It is a combination all of these. The smell of it will stay with you forever. The worst nightmare of an electrician is an electrical burning smell.
You can have electrical fires in any size and location. Copper and copper wires feed power through switches, plugs outlets, lights, TVs, televisions, and other devices. When they are damaged or overloaded with electricity (including insulation), they emit a distinctive scent.
Depending on where they are situated in relation one another, they could cause the same “burning-copper” odor. Or different smells due heat difference.
Below are some reasons you may detect an electrical burning smell in your home.
1. Overload – When too much current is flowing through a circuit, the wires can heat up and catch fire.
2. Short circuiting- when electricity gets stuck in one wire and flows into another wire, it will cause a short circuit which can lead to a fire.
3. Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). These breakers detect if electric current is flowing into the ground and bring it down before damage occurs.
4. Faulty wiring – This can be caused by water and ice, or by someone tripping over your electric cord.
The dangerous combination of fire and electricity is known as “electricity”. Electric fires are very common in houses. Electrical fires can happen in older homes with lots of outlets or extension cords.
Don’t hesitate to call Gigi Emergency Electrician at 07782 805852 should you smell a fishy electrical smell as it can be toxic.
You should check that your cookers, grills, and other heating appliances are turned off and that there are no debris in the way when the power goes out. If possible, turn off all unnecessary appliances, as those that are on will start working again when the power is restored, which could cause fires or electric shocks.
There may be a power cut in your area if the streets are dark or your neighbors lack power.
When you have a power cut, call 105 to find out what’s happening. You should also be able to find out when the power will be restored.
Your fuses or switches may be malfunctioning if your neighbors still have power and the street lights are on.
A qualified electrician can fix any issue with your appliances, fuse box, or wiring.
When power outages happen frequently in your home or a tripped fuse cuts power to your entire house, there could be a problem with your circuit breaker. Even if the circuit breaker is designed to cut power in response to surges or other anomalies, frequent power outages could mean that something is wrong with it. A licensed electrician can locate the cause of the problem and fix it for you.
We don’t always have advance notice and the luxury of scheduling an appointment for help, but we can always trust our local emergency electrician.
