Hi,
I have a 3 bed Terrace property that has been rented and on the day the tenant moved out half of the electrics failed.
Modern fuse box, 2x RCD's each with 6 MCB's
One RCD wont reset & the RCD's have been swapped and the problem isnt with the RCD.
This RCD has;
MCB's for Oven, Hob
Socket circuit (all) that has extractor and boiler hard wired (No "plugged" appliances connected)
Downstairs lighting circuit
The house is empty and an electrician is coming Wednesday.
In the meantime I'm wondering what the method of trouble shooting maybe an option as I would like to be able to do some hoovering / light diy in the place? Is this just visual, open light fittings then if that isnt obvious, hard wired appliances, then wall sockets etc.
Either way I'll get the sparky to inspect but whilst its off is there something I can check as per above ?
Cheers,
Richard
