Thanks Chris, I isolated all appliances and followed your steps, it still tripped, although not immediately, when the power was put back on, so i guess its time for an electrician.... Can anyone recommend a good electrician who would work South London area (Streatham Hill), also what...

Steve, forgot to answer your question: The Hob is gas but wont spark as its on same circuit, while the oven is electric and still works.

Thnx for replies. Ive uploaded a pic of circuit board in album:Circuit Board. On the switch it says Proteus Geyer 532B 6000 B32 3 230-400V BSEN 60898 This is the first time this has happened, i bought the house exactly a year ago, so bit stumped? As mentioned even...

My Kitchen circuit on circuit board keeps tripping. All the other circuits are ok and electricity around the house works fine. Only full time appliance usage is fridge and boiler. Last night it started and after flipping kitchen circuit switch back on it lasted 5-10 minutes before tripping. This...

New Boiler fitted is a Worcester Greenstar 24i/ 28i Junior. Rads bled for about 20 odd seconds, black water runs for initial 10-15 then it does clear a little, its not constant black but the water is still a murky brown. Im running the heating system now and in an hour ill check rads again.

Agile thnx for this. I believe it decodes to personal as its his name then has plumbing and heating after. Im hoping he will rectify the situation by doing a proper power flush when he returns next week, failing that I will have to pursue other avenues. How do i send i personal email through...

Sorry forgot 1 more thing. Agile i checked about sentinel x400 and their website say that it needs to be in the system for a minimum of 2 hours and up to 4 weeks but can be left in for longer without damaging the system, just thought that may helpful to anyone reading this.

Thanks for the reply. Just to state the facts. He has been around once before to fix a previous problem. He is CORGI registered. I have his mobile number CORGI number and have checked him out before hand. He was sent by a reputed company that i have my boiler plan with. He seemed trustworthy and...

Thanks Giblets. The whole boiler was replaced. Ive just checked the benchmark(didn't know about this thnx) and under system cleaner it says x400 and under inhibitor it says x100. What does that mean? Also if cleaner & inhibitor where used should i still have blackish stuff coming out the...

Thanks guys. As far as procedure goes, i was under impression that a powerflush (not just a flush/descale) was a requirement (manufacturers?) before a new boiler was installed in order to validate the warranty should the boiler fail. In my immediate opinion i did not receive the services...

I have just had my boiler condemned by a corgi engineer who was sent out via my home assist policy. We then agreed on a price to replace and fit the boiler(independently from the boiler plan company) and to have a powerflush done. He arrived today at 9 and at 1230 i popped out for 45 minutes...

Thank you all for your replies. I have not yet replaced or cleaned the switch as shortly after posting this problem i gave the switch a couple of light taps with a hammer to see if this may dislodge any dirt ( suggested on another forum). When i turned boiler back on the red low pressure light...

sorry , new to all this, ill stick to my original thread. thanks.

It seems simple enough to remove the switch but Im not sure of the correct procedure in terms of shutting the boiler down and or what to do with the water pressure as it is currently at 1.5 bars. Is this something I can do without a corgi technician( ie not illegal). If it is can someone walk me...

Thanks for the reply. Sadly i have been meaning to take out a boiler maintenance plan with EDF (my supplier) but like BG i believe the boiler has to be in working order first. (Theres a lesson here some where).

I posted earlier today that my low pressure light was on and boiler wouldn't fire, while the black pressure gauge was sitting in the 4 bar area( too much pressure), so i bled a radiator, got it down to 1 1/4 bars, low pressure light still on....i then tried disconnecting the 2 yellow wires PL12...

My Potterton Puma 80 boiler is showing low pressure warning. Ive looked at numerous other posts to check problem. The pressure is in fact way over in the red (4 bar), ive bled radiator to get it down to +- 1 1/4( black gauge now sits on red gauge). Ive also followed 2 yellow wires from PL12 on...
