Hi there,
Have an issue with our central heating, the power has tripped out a couple of times and it did so again through the night. By a process of elimination, I found that the issue was with the heating. As soon as I powered on the Heating switch that is next to our control unit (DANFOSS) in the kitchen, the RCD tripped.
I switched off the boiler (Ideal ICOS HE24), turned the thermostat in the living room to low, turned the controller unit (now on battery power) for heating and for water both to "off" & then changed the fuse.
When I switched it on, same thing happened, RCD tripped out.
Any ideas on what to check next, there is the water cylinder upstairs and I've checked that for any leaks around the pump area (GRUNDFOS pump) and it's dry?
Any pointers or help would be appreciated but I am guessing that I should really call out a heating engineer.
*Edit* There is also a Honeywell T4360A Frost Thermostat in the garage located next to the boiler
*Edit* I've used the r/set function on the controller in the kitchen and also checked all the connections on the main power switch & the frost thermostat. Have changed the fuse & powered on and at the moment it's holding. Boiler has been powered up and no issue yet. Fingers crossed it was just a gremlin in the system
Cheers
