A few days ago our RCD tripped, but when I re-set it everything seemed to be fine and it hasn't happened since. The lighting circuits were OK, so I presume the RCD only supports the power circuits.
I have worked out that it must have happened at about 1am, not long after we had gone to bed. The only appliances that would have been operating then would have been the fridge-freezer, the boiler, the broadband router and a connected wi-fi extender. All of these things have been in constant use in the meantime.
As this has not happened since I do not feel unduly worried, but I'd be interested in what could have caused it. On the other hand, if this points to something that could prove dangerous I realise that something must be done.
Should I be worried? Any advice would be welcome.
