Hi,
The house isn't new, just new to me.
The place is empty at the moment and I went down an hour ago to check all is okay. I found that the upstairs lights didn't work. I looked at the consumer unit and the two RCD switches, the main switch, and all eight of the MCBs' were in the up position, ie in the on position.
I tested the RCDs by pressing test buttons and they switched off. The trouble is that I can't get them to stay in the up, on position. They won't stay up, even if I bring all the MCBs and the main switch into the off position.
If it's any help, the CU is a MEM. It has an RCD on the left of the panel, then 4 MCBs, then the main switch, then the next 4 MCBs and then another RCD switch.
The house is about 40mins drive away but I can go back and take a photo is that's any help.
