When i got up yesterday morning i noticed the upstairs lights had tripped. I put the breaker back on and after half an hour or so they tripped again.
As a total coincidence i was planning on changing all the ceiling rose's as the excisting ones are old, so seen this as a good opportunity to change them and hopefully fix the fault at the same time.
I disconnected the front bedroom light, then had to stop due to poor light. At this point the front bedroom light was disconnected. The back bedroom and cupboard were untouched and the top landing was still connected but the ceiling rose had been unscrewed. I switched the breaker on and the top landing light didnt work, the cupboard flickered, and the back bedroom worked fine. They then tripped after a period of time so i left them off overnight.
This morning i disconnected all 4 lights and fitted new ceiling rose's but now when i try to put the breaker on, the rcd trips. I tried changing the breaker but had the same issue. I have then disconnected each light in turn and tried to put the breaker on at each interval but the rcd still trips. Now with every light disconnected the RCD still trips. Any ideas?
