Hi,

I frequently get power cuts every few days. I don't have a clue what is causing it? It just happens at random?

Any suggestions?

Do your neighbours suffer from them as well or is it an RCD tripping within your installation? If it is your supply that is cutting out, then contact your DNO or the company who send you your electricity bills and tell them about the issue.

Let's try some punctuation:

I frequently received 'Power Cuts'. Every few days, I don't have a clue. What is causing it? It just happens! Radomly??

Any suggestions?

Yeah. See a psychiatrist :LOL:
 
be nice you guys.. he comes here asking for help and gets abuse over punctuation and lack of information..

anyway.., we will need more information before we can give suggestions as to cause and cure for your problem...

there were a few topics recently which delt with recurring trips of rcd's after some minor work.. try taking alook at them as there were usefull tips for trying to see if there was a pattern or cause..
 
well, it is really difficult to find the problem causing the power cuts. I guess it maybe to do with one of the sockets in the house, but I have so many of them it's impossible to tell, which one is causing the power cuts??
 
So it is a fuse or RCD within your installation that is cutting the power rather than a loss of power coming into your house? Are you losing power to the whole house or just certain circuits?
