Flat 3 Cremer Street Home User Guide

• In the event that the MCB unit trips, there is a set procedure to reinstate the supply. • Sometimes a lamp blowing can cause the circuit breaker to trip. • If the circuit breaker trips it is due to a fault; firstly open the consumer unit door and look which MCB has tripped. That circuit only is faulty and needs investigating. • Try unplugging appliances on the faulty circuit. If the breaker stays on, systematically unplug the appliances until the breaker trips and identifies the faulty piece of equipment. • The faulty appliance must not be used until professional advice has been sought and repairs carried out and the appliance has been re tested for safety. Appliances that have a particular risk of earth leakage include electric kettles, washing machines, tumble dryers, irons, etc. • Do not repeatedly turn on the device if it has a fault. If it keeps tripping you should seek professional advice
