Hi
I've been banished to the bedroom with covid.
Our mains keeps tripping. It is definitely main ringmain citvuit
We have pulled every appliance out of sockets and still tripping.
The saving grace is that I have one double plug socket near consumer unit which is its own circuit. So at present we are running fridge and freezer from this by extension leads (not ideal I know)
I am baffled by the fact that there is no load on ringmain and it is still tripping. Tomorrow when family is out, I might go into consumer unit (have done so before) and swap the feeds from the good circuit to to one which keeps tripping. I realise all this may do is cause the other switch to trip. Haven't explained that very well and it certainly isn't a lasting solution even if it give me more working sockets.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
