Fault Finding Services Soho
An RCD may react to sudden increases in electrical current or leakage current due to freezer or refrigerator contents thawing.
Occasionally, a poorly connected appliance can cause a spike in electricity supply. The RCD will trip if this happens and it will reset as it was designed. The normal electricity supply should soon return to normal.
Moisture can cause trip by the RCD if it gets into sockets and electrical boxes outside. It is crucial that moisture be detected in socket boxes early. 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 happen due to faulty or poorly connected equipment, such older appliances like washers and dryers. If there is a correlation between surge frequency and appliance use, it is likely that the motor or pump is responsible for the RCD trip.
When there is an abrupt spike in electricity, it can cause serious injury or damage. These spikes can be caused by lightning strikes, electrical faults, power tools, appliances with motors or pumps, old washing machines and dryers and so on.
RCD trips could be caused by a faulty component of your central heating. RCD trips are often caused by the defective part turning on and off repeatedly. This can lead to false alarms. Permanent damage could be caused to electrical equipment if your home suffers frequent or prolonged RCD trips due to a faulty component.

Ohhhhh! The fuse box tripped once more. It happened right in the middle of the match. It can be frustrating to have your fuse box keep tripping while you are playing. It’s a sign that somewhere in your home you might be harbouring a faulty electrical appliance or wiring. 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 consumer unit, as electricians call it) is usually on the ground floor if you live in a house, underneath the stairs. You should keep the area around your unit clean to make it easy to access in case of an emergency. The unit will be higher up if you live in a flat.
A fuse box is critical to your household’s safety. It acts like a gatekeeper between the mains electrical supply and your home.
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. Electrical fires, electric shocks and other accidents would happen all too frequently if modern homes weren’t fitted with fuse boxes or circuit breakers.
If your fuse box panel is open, you can check to see if it has fuses. Circuit breakers are like a row or switch of levers and switches. Fuses are less modern. They’re round and fit into sockets like little lightbulbs.
Do yourself a favor and label your circuit breakers and fuses. Mark them according to where they are located and what lights or sockets they go off when you turn them 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. To avoid any danger of an electrical current, switch off and unplug anything you need to be working on. If you have fuse box problems in Merry Hill B66 2, Sandwell, Smethwick, Handsworth Wood, Lozells, call Gigi Emergency Electrician today! 07782 805852
Miniature Circuit Breakers or MCBs are protective electromagnetic devices which act as switches in a circuit. The circuit is automatically opened when they detect that the current flowing over it has exceeded a specified limit. This device can also be used to manually turn on and off normal switches.
These devices are also called time delay tripping devices. They trip and shut off the system when an overcurrent flows for a longer duration and poses a risk to the whole 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. A fault can lead directly to an unsafe situation, such as explosions and fire, if it is not fixed promptly. The fault also continuously damages the system’s health, leading to high energy loss, increased thermal stress, and a decreased system health.
Faults are dangerous and must be removed as soon possible.
Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB)
A protection device called MCB (miniature circuit breaker) that offers protection against overload and short-circuit is the MCB. It contains a bimetal & a solenoid coil, which trip the MCB in the event of Overload & Short Circuit. Conforming to IEC60898-1, MCB may be used for lower ratings between 0.5125A.
These security devices not only save your electrical gadgets or appliances, but also protect the wiring throughout the house. If an MCB trip occurs, it is a sign that there is a serious problem and should be addressed immediately.
An electrical fire or short usually has a distinctive burning copper or metal smell. There may be a mixture of rubber and plastic that you can smell. This is not a joke as it indicates that something is too full. For advice, turn off the main power and immediately call your electrician. They will inform you of the severity of the problem, and advise you if it is time to call the fire department.
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.
It’s not easy to describe how it smells. It is a blend of all of the above. It is all of the above. It can be an electricians’ worst nightmare.
Electrical fires can range from small to large and can happen in many different places throughout your home. Copper and metallic wires form the wiring that runs power through plugs, outlets, lights and TVs.
Depending on where these wires are located in relation to one another, they can cause the same “burning copper” odor or different smells due to temperature difference.
Here are some signs that you might have an electrical burning odour in your home.
1. Overload- this is when too much current goes through a circuit at once, causing the wires to heat up and catch on fire.
2. Short circuiting is when electricity gets trapped in one wire and flows to another wire. This can cause a short-circuit which can lead a fire.
3. Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) – These breakers detect if any electric current is flowing to your ground and turn it off before you cause damage.
4. Faulty wiring: This can be caused if water or ice is present, or if someone trips over your electrical cord, creating a short circuit which leads to fire.
It is dangerous to mix electricity with fire. It is very common to have electrical fires in your home. Electrical fires may occur when older homes have too many outlets or extension cables.
Should you sense an electrical fishy smell, do not hesitate to contact Gigi Emergency Electrician at 07782 805852 as it may be toxic.
When the power goes out, ensure that all your heaters, cookers, grills, and other heating appliances are off and clear of debris. Turn everything unnecessary off, if possible, as things that are switched on will start working again when the power comes back, which could lead to 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.
In the event of a power outage, you can get any information you need by calling 105. If they are able to tell you when the power will be restored, they should let you know.
When the power is still on at your neighbors’ or the street lights are still on in your neighborhood, your fuses or switches may be defective.
If it’s an electrical issue, call a professional right away.
There could be a problem with your circuit breaker when you experience frequent power outages in your home or if a tripped fuse cuts the power to your entire house. In spite of its design to cut power when surges or anomalies are detected, frequent outages could indicate that the breaker is faulty. An electrician can identify the root of the problem to get it fixed for you.
You can count on your local emergency electrician to provide help when there is no prior warning or the luxury of scheduling an appointment.
