Fuseboard

Posted by Rosamond Cole, on
Hi - a trip switch on the fuse board won't re-set - it flashes and snaps back when trying to reset. Main lights in relevant area of house are off, power sockets OK. What should I do? Many thanks. Ros

Hi Rosamond, You will have a fault on that circuit. Turn off all lights in that area and then try to reset. If it resets then turn each light back on in turn until it trips,thus finding the problem light/switch If it wont reset you will need an electrician out to investigate further Hope this helps Russ
