Fault Finding Services New Cross
An RCD can respond to sudden surges in electric current use or leakage current caused by freezer or refrigerator contents.
A poor connection can occasionally cause a surge in electricity supply. The RCD will trip if this happens and it will reset as it was designed. Electricity supply should return to normal shortly afterwards.
Moisture from outside electrical boxes or sockets can cause the RCD to trip. It is essential to identify moisture in your socket box immediately. Check exterior outlets and electrical terminal boxes regularly for moisture.
Spikes can also be the result of poorly maintained or incorrectly connected equipment such as older electrical appliances, such as washing machines and dryers, which can cause the power to surge. In the case of motors or pumps, if surge frequency and time are correlated, then the RCD trip was most likely caused by the appliance.
Trips are triggered when there is a sudden spike of electricity that can cause injury or damage. These spikes may be caused by lightning strikes and appliance electrical faults.
A faulty component in your central heating could cause RCD trips. RCD trips can be triggered by the faulty component turning on and off frequently, which could lead to false alarms. Electrical equipment could sustain permanent damage if it experiences repeated or prolonged RCD trip due to a defective component.

Ohhhhh! It happened again. You were in the middle of the game. If your fuse box keeps tripping even though you’re not sure why, it can be very frustrating. This is a sign that there might be a problem with your wiring or electrical appliances. You can reset it every now and again. You can also find the root cause of the problem and fix it immediately.
If you live on a ground floor, your fuse box (or consumer device, as electricians call them) is located underneath the stairs. Keep the area surrounding your consumer unit clean so that you can quickly access them in an emergency. If you live in an apartment, the unit is typically higher up on a wall of your hallway.
A fusebox is essential to your safety. It’s like a gatekeeper between you, the mains electric supply, and any electrical currents entering your home.
These currents can be dangerous and could cause a fatality if there is a fault or surge. The fuse box detects unusual activity and cuts off electricity flow to the circuit if it becomes too high. If modern homes didn’t have circuit breakers and fuse boxes, electrical fires and electric shocks would be all too common.
You can see whether you have circuit breakers or fuses by opening your fuse box panel. Circuit breakers look like a row of levers or switches. Fuses are more traditional. They’re round, and screw into sockets much like tiny light bulbs.
Don’t forget to label your circuit breakers/fuses. Label them according where you are and what sockets or lights go off when they switch on. You’ll be a blessing to your future self if you ever have to replace a circuit.
A professional electrician will be required to repair any major electrical problem in the 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 Fallings Park, Heath Town, Wednesfield, Springfield WV10 0, Underhill, call Gigi Emergency Electrician today! 07782 805852
Miniature Circuit Breakers, or MCBs for Miniature Circuit Breakers in electromagnetic protection, act as switches within a circuit. When the current passes over the circuit’s limit, they automatically open it. This device can also be used to manually turn on and off normal switches.
Also known as time delay devices, MCBs trip and stop the system whenever an overcurrent is flowing for a longer amount of time. This can pose a danger to the entire circuit. These devices can stop power supply for short-circuits in 2.5 milliseconds.
What Prompted MCB To Trip
In an electrical system ‘Fault’ is the condition which arises due to the malfunctioning of some component or wrong electrical practice. Faults can cause serious problems such as fire and explosion if they are not dealt with promptly. Additionally, faults that remain in an electrical system for too long can damage the system’s health. This can result in high energy losses, which in turn causes increased thermal stress.
Faults are hazardous to the system & require to be cleared at the earliest thus, there is a need for such a device which not only is capable of clearing the fault but also has a lower opening time in order to save the let-through energy & minimize the thermal stress.
Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB)
MCB or Miniature Circuit Breaker is a protection device which offers protection against overload & short circuit. It includes a bimetal & a solenoid coil which trips the MCB in case of Overload & Short Circuit respectively. Conforming with IEC 60898-1 MCB is used to lower ratings from 0.5125A.
They are safety devices that can not only protect electrical appliances and gadgets but also the wiring of the house. An MCB trip should not be taken lightly.
A short or electrical fire will usually have a strong metallic or 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. For advice, turn off the main power and immediately call your electrician. They’ll tell you how serious the issue and whether or not you should call your local emergency number.
Why Do I Keep Smelling Electrical Burning?
Sometimes the electrical smell could be related to a device you have plugged in and not your system electrical at all.
Although it’s difficult to describe, it smells awful. It is a combination of all of the above. Once you smell it you will never forget it. The worst nightmare of an electrician is an electrical burning smell.
The size of an electrical fire is dependent on its location. Copper and metal wires are what feed power to outlets, switches, plugs lights, TVs, and other devices. They emit a distinct smell when damaged by heat or over-use of electricity (which includes damaged insulation).
Depending on the location of these wires in relation to each other, they may produce the same “burning copper” odor or different smells because of temperature differences.
Below are some reasons you may detect an electrical burning smell in your home.
1. Overload- when too much current passes through a circuit at the same time. It causes wires and cables to 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 could be caused by water, ice, or someone tripping over your cord.
It is dangerous to mix electricity with fire. It is very common to have electrical fires in your home. Electrical fires can occur in older homes that have many extension cords or outlets.
Do not hesitate to call Gigi Emergency Electrician on 07782 805852 if you suspect that there is an electrical smell. It could 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 everything you don’t need, since things that were switched on will activate again when the electricity returns, which could cause a fire or electric shock.
There may be a power outage in your area if your neighbors don’t have power or the street lights are out.
When you have a power cut, call 105 to find out what’s happening. They may also be able to let you know when the power will come back on.
You might have a fuse or switch issue if your neighbors and street lights are still on.
Avoid doing it yourself.
Whenever you have frequent power outages, or if a tripped fuse cuts power to your entire house, your circuit breaker may be malfunctioning. A circuit breaker cuts power when surges or anomalies are detected, but frequent outages can be a sign that the device is malfunctioning. It is the electrician’s job to find the root of the problem and fix it.
Sometimes we don’t have the luxury of time to schedule an appointment for help, so trust your local electrician to help you when you need it.
