So the last couple of days we've been having random tripping RCD.
Before getting an electrician in, I'm trying to establish at least a cause, to save both time and money.
I've been trying to isolate appliances, but there doesn't appear to be anything specific causing it. Turn the vacuum on, trip. Reset, turn the vacuum on again in the same socket and it's fine. Turn the shower on, trip. Reset, and it's fine. Attached is a rough schematic of the wiring routing, we have 2 consumer units connected with armoured. Each with their own RCD.
It's ONLY Circuit 1 that isolates the RCD trips on. Note the shower is on circuit 2.
Any ideas?
