Came home last night to tripped mcb on the appliance ring, washing machine, fridge freezer, dishwasher and cooker hood are fed from a grid switch.
Grid switch is fed via its own ring from the CU with a 32A mcb 2.5 t&e in one end 2.5 t&e in the other end and then links to the middle switches.
Anyway I removed the switches to find a burnt mess and the insulation on the live to the dishwasher melted.
Do I need to get the electrics checked out? Or is it more likely a case of a faulty DW?
House was built in 2004 if that helps (by a bunch of cowboys I might add)
