[QUOTE="M107, post: 75848, member: 28"] Had a lovely curry tonight. Call this evening from a local curry house "Do you do emergency call outs the kitchen electrics have gone off" I dont normally but as it was local thought why not. Gets there resets rcd mainswitch 5 mins later off it goes again, go through the normal isolating each circuit in turn & find a single socket circuit is the culprit. While I'm doing this the cooks are using head torches to do the cooking :^O The culprit was a grease trap under the sink that still had the paper wiring guide around the pins of the plug & the paper had become wet. Took off the paper & no more rcd tripping. One happy owner sent me on my way with a free scoff for 2 :) [/QUOTE]
