Hi just by way of update. Came down this morning and the mcb for kitchen was down but not the rcd. Switched it back on and within 5 mins it went again and tripped rcd. The only way I can get the rcd to stay on now is leaving mcb switched off. The fridge is plugged into front by way of extension...

Ok so boiler been off all night with no trips but it's just tripped now. Only thing plugged in was fridge but I have tested this by plugging it into different circuit with no problems. Think I will have to get electrician but after bank holiday. We have a garage but nothing is plugged in and...

It's just tripped again. The mcb was down and also the rcd. I have turned boiler off by fused spur.
