Hi there,
I know I'm in Ireland but I believe our electrics are the same so I'm posting here for some help.
I have an electric shower.
The original shower lasted for three years and started to trip the circuit breaker, I figured it had lived it's life and replaced it.
The new one was working for a few weeks, it was then used for an extended amount of time (about 30 minutes) and tripped out.
Since then it is tripping out all the time. Sometimes even when the power switch to the shower is on but the shower itself it off. Other times after less than a minute.
I have replaced the circuit breaker. The wires 'seem' ok, and if there was a short there I would assume it would trip instantly.
Any other ideas?
Thanks.
