An RCD is capable of reacting to an unexpected rise in electrical current usage or leakage potential, which can be caused by the contents of your fridge or freezer thawing.
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. Soon after, the electricity supply should resume normal.
Moisture in outside electrical boxes and sockets can cause a trip by the RCD. It is vital that you detect moisture in your socket box early on. Exterior electrical terminal boxes and outlets should be periodically checked for moisture; signs of moisture may include weather-sealed cases that have deteriorated and/or reset switches that trip randomly.
Spikes can also happen due to faulty or poorly connected equipment, such older appliances like washers and dryers. 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.
A sudden surge of electricity can cause injury or even damage. These surges can be caused either by lightning strikes or electrical faults, as well as from appliances with motors or pumps.
RCD trips could be caused by a faulty component of your central heating. An RCD trip is often triggered when the faulty part turns on and off repeatedly, which may 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. If your fuse box keeps on tripping, it can be frustrating. It is an indicator that something in your home might be defective. You could reset it each time it trips. Or you can identify the problem and fix the issue immediately.
If you live in an apartment, the fuse box (or the consumer unit, as electricians call) is typically located on the ground level, below the stairs. Keep the area surrounding your consumer unit clean so that you can quickly access them in an emergency. If you live alone, the unit will likely be higher up than a wall in your hallway.
A fusebox is crucial to your safety. Think of it as the gatekeeper between yourself and all electrical currents coming into the home from the mains power 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.
You can see whether you have circuit breakers or fuses by opening your fuse box panel. Circuit breakers look like a series of switches or levers. Fuses, which are more modern-looking than most, are round and can be screwed into sockets just like small light bulbs.
If your circuit breakers or fuses aren’t clearly labelled, do yourself a favour and mark them up according to what room and which lights and sockets go off when you switch them on. Your future self will thank you if a circuit ever breaks.
Any kind of major electrical fault around the house will need to be repaired by a professional electrician. 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 Greets Green, Newtown BY4 7, Great Bridge, Oakham, call Gigi Emergency Electrician today! 07782 805852
MCBs or Miniature Circuit Breakers are protective electromagnetic devices that act as a switch in a circuit. They open the circuit automatically when the current passing through it exceeds a set limit. You can also use the device as a manual 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. These devices can stop power supply for short-circuits in 2.5 milliseconds.
The condition of an electrical system that is characterized by “fault” refers to any situation that results from the malfunctioning or incorrect use of electricity. If not addressed promptly, a fault can lead to an extremely dangerous situation like explosion and fire.
Faults pose a danger to the system and should be addressed immediately.
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. In accordance with IEC 600898-1, MCB will be used to reduce ratings below 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.
A typical electrical fire or short emits a metallic, or burning copper, smell. You might also smell rubber mixed in with plastic. This is not something to laugh at as it could indicate that your main power supply has been overload. 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.
Sometimes, an electrical smell could be caused by a device you have plugged and not your entire system.
Although it’s difficult to describe, it smells awful. The answer is a combination of all of the above You will never forget what it smells like. Ultimately, it’s an electrician’s worst nightmare.
You can have electrical fires in any size and location. Copper and metal wires make up the wiring that supplies power to devices such as outlets, switches and plugs. These wires emit a distinctive odor when they become damaged by heat, overloading, or other electrical stimuli (including damaged insulation).
Depending upon where the wires are placed in relation to each another, they can either produce the same “burning” copper odor or a different smell due to temperature difference.
Here are some signs that you might have an electrical burning odour 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 a wire and flows into another, it can cause a shortcircuit that can lead to a fire.
3. Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI), these breakers detect if there is an electrical current flowing into your ground. They then shut down the power before any damage is done. This protects you against shock.
4. Faulty wiring can be caused either by water, ice or someone tripping over your wire and creating a short-circuit that causes fire.
A dangerous combination of electricity and fire is the combination. Electrical fires are very common in homes. Electrical fires may occur when older homes have too many outlets or extension cables.
If you detect a fishy smell, don’t hesitate calling Gigi Emergency Electrician or 07782 805852 as it could be dangerous.
When the power goes out, ensure that all your heaters, cookers, grills, and other heating appliances are off and clear of debris. 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.
If your neighbours don’t have power or the street lights are off, there may be a power cut in your area.
The latest power cut information is available by dialing 105. They may also be able to let you know when the power will come back on.
Your fuses or switches may be malfunctioning if your neighbors still have power and the street lights are on.
Do not attempt to fix the problem yourself.
Whenever power outages occur frequently in your home or a fuse trips, your circuit breaker may need to be replaced. A circuit breaker cuts power when surges or anomalies are detected, but frequent outages can be a sign that the device is malfunctioning. To get the problem resolved, an electrician will need to identify the source of the problem.
You can count on your local emergency electrician to provide help when there is no prior warning or the luxury of scheduling an appointment.
