Ok so the experiment continues. I left the pull cord ON constantly and just turned it off at the shower button each time (usually I would do that and then pull the cord to turn that off too). When I left the pull cord on it didn’t trip at all... but here’s the weird bit.. The last week or so the...

So I’ve left it on at the pull cord since Wednesday and it hasn’t yet tripped again... will continue the experiment over the weekend and report back! if it does turn out that it only trips with the switch off could that be a problem with the switch? If so, should I replace it? I’m confident...

Sorry about the spelling error In the title, won’t let me change it now! Should say ‘when NOT in use’

Weird one and was wondering if anyone can help? I originally booked for an electrician to come and have a look but had to cancel due to being in isolation for 12 weeks (fun). Can anyone give me any ideas on what this might be? Electrician said it could just need a new pull cord switch in the...
