Hi, if anyone could help me with this i'd be very grateful. I'm currently house-sitting for a friend and something has gone haywire. I don't know if i'm being an idiot or if I need to ring an electrician...
Ok so, we'd only been here about an hour when we realised the kitchen lights weren't working. On checking the consumer unit, the RCD was off but all of the MCBs were fine. The RCD would not go back into position and kept flicking back to off, the second time taking one of the MCBs with it.
The MCB that went off is labelled "wisebox" and we have no idea what this is, but more importantly even when that MCB is left off, the RCD wont go back to on.
The only way we can get the RCD to go back on is by turning off the main big red switch.
Any ideas? Does this mean that one of the actual MCBs has gone wrong? Thanks in advance.
